June 20th head to our friends bookstore opening in Lindstrom! Woot woot!

Bruyere Books & Tea is opening June 20, 2026.

We built this bookstore differently; so our grand opening will be different, too.

Not louder.
Not rushed.
Not overwhelming.

Expect relief.
Recognition.
Softness.
Permission.
Possibility.

A space where q***r people, neurodivergent people, curious people, tired people, book people, tea people, and anyone who has ever felt a little out of place can simply exist as themselves.

We cannot wait to welcome you in.
