✨✨SPECIAL GIVEAWAY ✨✨
Now that the building work has begun, every day we feel a little bit closer to being able to welcome you back into the shop.
While we’ve been away from the space, we’ve been thinking a lot about the Green Spirit community; the conversations, the crystals, the calm moments, the guidance, the laughter and the everyday magic that happens when people walk(ed) through the door ✨
So, we would love to know….
WHAT DO YOU MISS MOST ABOUT GREEN SPIRIT RISING?
Leave a comment below and you’ll be entered for a chance to WIN TWO TICKETS to AN EVENING WiTH ECKHART TOLLE in Ottawa on SUNDAY MAY 31.
It feels like a beautiful way to celebrate presence, renewal and the community that has kept Green Spirit going, while we look forward to re-opening in the future.
With gratitude
Caroline | Green Spirit Rising

✨Friendly Reminder.✨ We wish we could continue to offer online ordering while we are closed for repairs but it’s a logical impossibility right now. Thanks SO much for your kindness and your understanding at this time. Please don’t shout at us, it’s been a very challenging time and we are truly doing our absolute best.

Hey!! 👋 Just in case you missed the BIG NEWS! Repairs at 5562 Main St are finally underway 🎉 Pop ups continue weekly for the month of May and online ordering has to pause for now. We very much hope we will be back with you over the Summer months but we continue to take it one step at a time, to see how this unfolds ✨✨✨

REPAIRS START TOMORROW!!! 🥳🎉🥳🎉🥳
Hooray!! Finally we have some movement over here! It’s been 3.5months since a car lodged itself in our lovely heritage building and I’ll admit there have been days when I thought permits would never get approved and repairs were destined never to start! But here we are, news came TODAY that repairs start TOMORROW!! So….lets keep everything crossed that it all goes smoothly. I’ll continue to post updates as I have them but for now, this is what you need to know.
1. Online ordering is now CLOSED until June. Stock is now spread between 3 locations and I don’t have easy access to most of it at this point. Thanks So Much to everyone who has been supporting us by placing orders since January. Every order has helped us keep going 💜
2. Pop Ups will continue in MAY at The Village Psychic - thanks to Amy who is very kindly hosting us for the next 4 weeks. Our plan is to Pop Up on Fridays and Saturdays 11am to 3pm but we will confirm as we go so please keep an eye on our stories! BIG Thanks to and Anna Rosa for running most of these while I take a much needed break this month 💜
That’s all folks!
Thanks for being here. We hope to see you in the Summer!!! ☀️✨☀️✨☀️✨☀️
