Kula Cloth!!! They’re amazing! Basically a pee cloth made for people with short urethras so we can dry off after we pee outside unlike those with penises. https://kulacloth.com/ It was started by Anastasia Allison in Washington state. She also writes on substack. Yours are the 2 women led companies that I read!

Check out Cult + King. https://cultandking.com/

They make natural, botanical hair, skin and scalp products. I often gift their balm. The Packaging is beautiful, and mostly plastic free or refillable. They share your absolute disdain for Amazon and refuse to sell there. Many products are multi-use, so you buy fewer products. They recently hosted a Weirdfest in their hometown of Park City Utah for their stockists and showed them a really amazing time of education, community and celebration. Check out photos on their instagram.

Also, it would be great if you offer Apres Delight in your virtual marketplace, so that I can restock when I'm shopping for gifts and other merchandise. I had been purchasing it from your shop at the Reno Pubic Market because I don't usually plan ahead very well, so it was nice that you offered it there.

Sally! I missed your message the first time around -- thanks for the suggestions! Re: Après it's difficult to sell it online because it contains CBD. Shopify was going to pause our payments from customers if we didn't removed it from the shop, so now it lives here: https://www.apresdelight.com/. You can always order online and we can meet up in Reno if that's easier for you. Would be great to catch up also!!

I love the brands you carried at Far Out including Topo Designs, the most comfy socks , and cool geometric jewelry (can't remember the brands). I recently heard a great quote from the designer of the Sea Dragons exhibit at the Nevada Museum of Art. You can "Go further with less" after facing a similar downsizing/redesign challenge. I look forward to seeing your journey continue!

Thanks Lee! Sorry I missed this message but it's been so nice catching up with you at the farmers' market. And yes, I'm looking forward to "going further with less."
