Remember to Help support the small business’s and keep the Oddball shops around
I'm aware the economy is really tight ,- so many of us are struggling! But a lot of us small businesses could really use your patronage right now too. It's getting strained enough that I'm actively looking as to what my next phase of life looks like post Under The Elder Tree if things don't change soon. Who knows, maybe it's actually time for something different. Afterall, I'm not getting any younger and I still have other goals in life that I haven't yet achieved.... But I'm not quite ready to throw in the towel yet, and I won't go down without a fight for what I've worked so many decades to build. The online Tea Shop, in fact, is the first step to possibly disconnect from the building, the district, and the city. So if I decide to dissolve, I can still serve & reach those who regularly depend so much on what I offer here- wherever I land. Maybe I'll just go back to the basics somewhere like in the beginning when it was a tiny shop with just me and everything in one room. That actually sounds kind of relieving about now. Simplicity and less overhead to worry about.
I have 8,319 followers- if even a fraction of you bought one singular $8 tea, I'm absolutely certain it will make a huge impact for us!
I've worked hard to be here serving the community, and if you still like what we do, I simply ask that you could remember to swing by and make sure we can continue to thrive.
Our local small businesses that you love only survive if you remember to support them.
Thanks!!
