BK & Co is a ladies boutique owed by two longtime friends Barbara and Karen, hence the name of…read moretheir store. Upon walking inside most items seemed geared toward older ladies. Also, I noticed there were some very wrinkly shirts, from cotton to rayon. Maybe I'm delayed on knowing what's forward in today's fashion, but something tells me every fabric doesn't look best when wrinkly. The further I looked in to the rear of the store, the more I liked the pieces. There are some formal dresses, some purses, shoes and jewelry pieces that I would be interested in when the occasion presents its self. They also have a sale section downstairs. I might return here soon to purchase a birthday gift for my mom.

The shops are in various types of buildings; historic houses and more conventional buildings. Getting in and out of the lot was easy because of the traffic lights; this is crucial especially on the busy route 44. As of May 2024, they have the following shops under each category (from their website): SHOPPING: Details: gifts and home decor Sassy's: jewelry, clothing, handbags Tree House Gallery and Tea Room: antiques, collectables, soups, salads, sandwiches, and desserts True Hart Boutique: clothing and accessories Wild Iris Home: home decor FOOD: Chez Michel French Market: French inspired bakery Strip Steakhouse: you guessed it, steak restaurant LIFESTYLE: 30 Minute Hit: boxing/kickboxing gym Avon Eye Design: optometry services Avon Nutrition: protein shakes and tea Clifton Barn: 1830 barn/venue used for events Railway Barbershop: you guessed it, a barbershop Salon Jia Li and Spa: hair and nails The Gym of Avon: personal training gym I did see other shops there that weren't listed on their website; I'm sure new places pops up and others move.

We buy all of our kids' lacrosse equipment at Sartorius now, and they've never steered us wrong. Our older daughter was ready for an advanced/high level stick and we appreciated so much that she could try many different options right there in the store and get feedback from staff members who actually know the sport and could guide her towards the best options for the position she plays. Our younger daughter's goalie helmet had a hardware issue about 6 months after we bought it and I brought it to Sartorius expecting to need to pay $40 for a new throat guard - not so, Chris had the right hardware and fixed it for us in minutes. Their stringing services are also fairly-priced and quick.

Chris and Paul guided me to not one, but two pairs of shoes (Hoka and Saucony) that fit great. My orthotics squeaked a bit in the shoes, but Chris had a brilliant solution that involved cutting a layer of thin material to insert in the shoes. Takes time and skill, but he did it for all four shoes while I waited. Now I can sneak up on people without the squeaking giving me away... Happy and grateful (and stealthy) customer.

The Monday before the storm going up Avon Mountain, I felt the car struggling going up and then it started to shake. I reached the office where I work at and my husband suggested to take it somewhere near the office. I started looking and saw that Village was a few minutes away. I called and was told to bring the car over. After explaining the situation he indicated he might know the issue. I left the car there and went to work. A few hours later he indicated that I needed to replace the spark plugs and ignition cord. My car was ready before my day ended at work, when I drove up Avon Mountain, what a smooth ride going up. I've had no issues ever since, I would definitely recommend Village.

The one downside to this boutique, is that the prices are a bit high. I saw a tiny and precious dress for a three month old infant priced at $60! This may not be your everyday essentials type of store, it's more of special occasion or family picture type of place, so it's ok to splurge a bit on that special outfit. Kindred & Crew is a great spot to find a special gift for a new mom. This a lovely family owned boutique that is a great addition to the shops in Farmington Valley.
