My favorite type of items for sale are called upcycled. Items that would be thrown away are used to make very creative products. There were also some trendy new clothes, and some that were new but looked vintage. There is a good range of high quality used housewares. There is a wide selection of jewelry and some nice furniture.

Monkitree is THAT place, for Gardiner. The owner features local artisans from across Maine, in a variety of themes. Textiles, jewelry, fine art, kitchen goods, small games and puzzles, coffee, chocolates, and a few unique items of clothing. There's a few things that a true to Gardiner here, that feature fish (alewives), the Kennebec River and the sturgeon. I'd say the prices are on par with the quality of the work shown in the shop. There's something for everyone here!

This is a great place to buy a gift for someone who you actually want to buy a gift for or just chill out and talk about politics in the back room. I think they stopped allowing smoking since the pandemic, but this is just one of those amazing little gems. If you're in the area I think you should check it out as it is truly unique.

The only downfall is that it is not that organized and kind of messy. I have there a couple times now and will be back again. The owner is also a certified car seat expert, so she can inspect your car seat and make sure you are using the correct one and that it is installed properly in your car.
