To Our Beloved Community, π
It is with a heavy heart that I share some difficult news. After a decade of joy, growth, and countless memories, Botanic Alternatives is being forced to close its doors on December 8th due to circumstances beyond our control. I will not go into details because we are going to take the high road but it will become very clear what happened when you see the future tenant of the space....It is heartbreaking.
Botanic Alternatives has been more than just a business; it's been a home, a sanctuary, and a place of community. Each one of you has been a part of our incredible journey, and for that, we are eternally grateful. Our hearts are filled with gratitude for the love and support you've shown us over the years. You are not just our customers; you are our family, our βwhy.β
As we face this challenging time, we need your support more than ever. Every purchase, no matter how small β be it a pack of gummies or a candle β makes a difference. Your support will help us keep the dream alive, as we plan to come back stronger and better than ever.
For those interested in being a part of our next chapter or willing to give a new home to our fixtures and shelving units, please feel free to reach out to me at [email protected]. Even if it's just to share a memory or say hello, I would love to hear from you.
If our store has touched your life in any way, could you please share this post? Comment with your favorite memories or photos at Botanic Alternatives. Every share, comment, and memory helps more than you know. Thank you for being a part of our story. π
Let's make these final days a celebration of what we've built together. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being the most significant part of our journey. We're hopeful that this isn't the end, but a brief pause before a new beginning.
With all my love and gratitude,
Tom
Owner, Botanic Alternatives
P.S. Don't forget to show some love to our friends at Your Happy Place β David and Julia Cruz have been invaluable allies through this journey, are suffering and heartbroken as well, and are two of the finest human beings on this planet. I love you both!
