My favorite local small businesses
In honor of the day devoted to love, I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite local small businesses once again that I absolutely love. They pour their hearts into their work and it shows. I can’t wait for you to check them out too. Enjoy!
If you haven’t checked out Elemental Bakery yet, you’re seriously missing out. This adorable new coffee and bake shop is the perfect combination of two amazing businesses coming together. The coffee is spot-on, and the bakery treats are next-level (pro tip: don’t skip the almond croissant—it’s everything). It’s a cozy, welcoming spot for a mid-day treat, and trust me, you won’t regret stopping by!
I stumbled upon Morninga Vinaga years ago at a farmer’s market, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Their sipping vinegars are not only delicious but also help keep me feeling healthy. I love their subscription service—it’s become part of my daily routine. I add it to sparkling water, and it’s the perfect little fizzy, flavorful pick-me-up.
Kyndred is the brainchild of a super creative interior designer, and it’s one of those shops you just want to browse for hours. Whether you’re looking for a home refresh or on the hunt for the perfect gift, Kyndred has everything you need. It’s cozy, it’s stylish, and it’s packed with gorgeous finds.
I am so excited about Pearl Market. This well-stocked market has been such a fantastic addition to our neighborhood. It’s got a fun variety of specialty items, a great selection of beverages, and even grab-and-go meals. If you’re looking for a quick, tasty bite, their pizza (available by the slice!) is definitely a must-try!
Now that both of my boys are obsessed with running, we’re at Runners Roost pretty often. This shop has everything to fuel their running passion—shoes, gear, apparel, you name it. The customer service is always top-notch, and even as a non-runner, I’ve picked up sneakers and activewear here. They’ve got something for everyone!
Dry Bar is such a fun addition to our neighborhood! It’s the perfect place for a quick pick-me-up when you need to feel fabulous. Plus, they have a subscription service, so you’ll never have to worry about having anything less than amazing hair again.
Molly is a truly skilled master herbalist, specializing in skincare and pediatric conditions. She’s worked her herbal magic on me, creating a customized formula that helped me tremendously. If you’ve tried everything in Western medicine and still haven’t found a solution, I highly recommend reaching out to Molly—her knowledge and expertise could be just what you need!
I hope this list of my favorite local businesses helps you discover some amazing spots in the neighborhood. Supporting these hardworking, inspiring businesses brings so much joy, and I’m so happy to share them with you. Wishing you all a love-filled Valentine’s Day! 💖
