Seriously. As soon as you can.

Boston General Store
Brookline, Massachusetts
A personal favorite. If the exterior of this brick and mortar shop doesn’t draw you in, their functional and sustainable home goods will. Plus, you can find one of their cozy corners in our Autumn issue. You’ll love it, trust me.

Vermont Country Store
Weston, Vermont
As if you need another excuse to adventure Vermont. Visit for their history and stay for a treat at Mildred’s Dairy Bar. Just don’t forget the maple syrup.
