    This is an adorable gift shop that you can easily spend hours in without ever seeing all there is…read moreto offer! From handmade birdhouses to gourmet foods to throwback candy to inspirational books, this place has something for everyone! Be sure to check out their Facebook page and be informed of upcoming sales and events! They have a special Wednesday night girls night that includes a discount on all purchases. My anti-shopping husband and I went on a Sunday afternoon and I had to drag HIM out of the store! He found so many things that he wanted that he had to start a pile at the register so he didn't have to carry everything while he continued to shop! Our treasures included a pizza oven cook book, a shepherd's hook, a birdhouse, some peach bbq sauce, a handmade pen, a large picture/wall hanging, and a few caramels. We love it all and can't wait to go back! Pro tip....be sure to use the restroom so you can read about the history of this beautiful space. Sounds weird, I know, but what a lovely story abut a well-loved place! This is the PERFECT place to go if you are wanting to buy a unique and thoughtful gift for someone but have no idea what to get. Your gift will be the best one your receiver had gotten! The prices are fair. Not too high but not a discount store either. It is still a boutique. Oh...and the salespeople are just awesome! So sweet and make you feel like you are their closest friends. They wrap your goodies under with care and even offered to help carry things to our car. The whole experience was a 10/10!!!

I'm not all that knowledgeable on it but I'm sure they'd tell you about the "farm" it sits on. It's in a great location off of Bunker, near Round Lake. Parking is behind the building. Now you may think you are parking in a memory care apartment complex because you are. That's a part of this original Farmstead property. They take pride in MN. You'll find anything made by a local MN artisan here. There's a section devoted to just the MN State Fair. It may be stuffed to the brim with things, but it is organized well. Bath, body, kitchen, cabin, baby, faith, sports, fashion, treats. I usually want it all. And it's a great place to find a birthday or thank you gift. They offer gift cards and have offered basic gift-wrapping in the past (ribbon tied on the bag). They also host artisan markets to showcase some vendors. They gave me a postcard for an upcoming event, which includes food trucks. Sis and I stopped in on our way to the Downtown Anoka shops. But I found everything for my bday peeps here. No need to fight for off-street parking or the sidewalk sales crowd. Thank goodness!

    Stumbled across this boutique while walking past it as my friend and I were waiting for our movie…read moreat the Parkway Theater. It was a fun little impromptu shopping for us. There's a lot of fun gift ideas, but I will say the main items are geared towards children or women. I did find a shampoo bar I've been wanting, but was also browsing their cook books and candles. I found a new shop to consider when buying gifts for my two sisters. ‍ The staff were welcoming and nice and they talked up some of their chocolates at the checkout area. My friend purchased me a small chocolate that we enjoyed in the theater - they were right! Very good.

I snagged a seasonal ornament at 50% off and browsed for about an hour (could've easily stayed longer, but the rest of the day was calling). Such a cute boutique with tons of goodies! I absolutely loved ALL the jewelry. It's about a 30-minute drive from where I live, but it's definitely worth the trip, and hey, maybe I'll catch a movie too. The real icing on the cake was Julie. She was so pleasant and engaging and truly made me feel welcome. Great customer service is rare these days, and she nailed it-thank you, Julie! If you're in the area or looking for a fun little field trip, this place is a must. Everything is beautifully arranged: jewelry, candles, stationary & clothing, purses, and toys for kiddos. I'd say prices are normal for a boutique and the quality of everything is great. Plus, lots of unique finds. Side note- I was so zoned here that I completely forget to take photos.

I ordered 2 arrangements for my mother's funeral from photos on the florist website, and made clear in my order that they needed to stand on the floor of the altar so needed height and presence. I paid for the largest size of each arrangement, which means the largest number of flowers in them--the order was over $500. She was kind taking my order and assured me these 2 choices would work. When I saw them at the church, I couldn't believe they were the flowers I had ordered. They were small and haphazard looking. I called her after the funeral saying I was not asking for a refund but did want her to know these were disappointing and small. I did not say, but I felt, these were rather embarrassing looking, as well. The flowers that arrived from the local grocery store floral department looked assembled with more care. She said "Maybe you don't know how to order flowers" and "I can't make flowers taller than they are!" Defensive and offensive, and not one word of compassion or understanding that these were important flowers; no apology that they missed the mark. I said I didn't need taller flowers, but that both arrangements were meant to stand on the floor, she had known that, and these looked like small tabletop arrangements. After the call, I emailed her the photos, and reiterated I didn't want a price adjustment, I just wanted her to know these were not acceptable and I wanted her to acknowledge that to me. She did not respond. I also heard from the church that the florist called them and said she would leave the flowers outside the church if the church wasn't open when it was convenient for her. The church secretary was shocked at how rude the florist was. A bad product and the wrong personality for working with people.
