shop by Where It's Made
We only carry goods made in North America, but tracking brand origins can feel like detective work. It's hard work that goes into our buying work. A company might live in one state, make in another, and guard a few secrets in between. Some brands create certain lines overseas (those don’t make it onto our shelves).To keep things simple, we plot each brand by its headquarters. And while we stock makers from all over the US, a state only earns a dot once we’ve reached a solid crew of makers in a state. More dots coming soon and product offering changes regularly. Of course our stock skews heavily towards the location of our own store, Vermont!
Common Deer:
Make
it Better.
So, what's the deal with "it" in make it better? Well, that's a bit of a mystery, on purpose. Just like our name, our mission's meaning is all over the place. We're not trying to be confusing, but we want people to think about what we're doing and why. It's like a puzzle that you get to solve.
500+ Makers + Artists
We’re lucky to work with an incredible crew of local makers and artists and here are just a few you’ll find in our shop and online. Want to join the squad? Apply via the link in our footer. And if you’re curious about the brands we feature, you’ll find maker details right on each product page. Sorry we don't list out the full list any where on our site, because well... it takes a lot of work to curate this selection.
