Over the last few weeks, we’ve had so many thoughts - we’ve thought about shelving some of our new arrivals, about expanding our Melville-Whitman shrine, and nurturing our newborn ginkgo tree. With all of these thoughts and responsibilities waiting to be fulfilled, we knew what we had to do - write about them in a newsletter. The first edition is of the Ginkgo Leaflet is out now! Hear about what’s going on at store, around town, and in the deep crevices of our minds at the link in our bio.
