The current trend of toxic consumerism has impacted our communities and the planet - we are here to fight the negative affects. Brand new products continue to be manufactured at an alarming rate, and handcrafting skills are being forgotten & taken for granted. There’s no need to buy new when you can find unique secondhand & handmade pieces that have a story, protect our environment, support artisans, and express your authenticity. Feels like a win-win, no?\rAt The Nest, we elevate & incubate sustainable style through offering a curated collection of secondhand fashion, furniture & homewares, and by hosting workshops & events lead by local creatives, designers & experts. At The Nest we offer so much more than just shopping. We are a communal gathering and incubation space for likeminded individuals who want to engage in building a community of inclusivity, sustainability, and growth. Our curated collection of secondhand & local art will be available to browse at our shopping parties, workshops, and other private events.\rCome #NestWithUs and feel inspired to express your authenticity & support the healing of our planet through sustainable style choices." } ] } ] ```
