Our normally online-only business is hosting a Pop-Up Shop for a special in-person shopping experience on December 16th from 10am to 2pm.
Our Pop-Up Shop will be located in the front of the former Clewell Motors building at 1280 S. Washington Street, Constantine, MI 49042.
We will have all sorts of Michigan-made items from our Gift Baskets and Gift Boxes to items as small as magnets and ornaments. Here are some pictures of what we will have available.
One of the coolest parts of the Pop-Up Shop is the ability to build your own gift box. Grab one of our empty boxes, pick out a lid from our available selection and fill it with all of the fun and tasty Michigan-made treats in stock. Bring it to the checkout and we will tally it up for you.
We are set up to accept cash, cards, and Venmo.
