Our Story
From a farmers market table to a nationwide specialty retailer — built on craft, curation, and community.
Gathering the makers we believe in
Hearth & Co. began when founders Elena and Marcus set up a single table at the Portland Farmers Market, selling curated gift boxes of local honey, olive oil, and preserves.
Customers kept asking for more — and for shipping to friends and family across the country. That demand shaped everything: a Shopify storefront, a warehouse partnership, and a sourcing philosophy that puts small-batch quality first.
Today we work with over 40 independent artisans, from Vermont maple producers to California olive growers, bringing their best work to tables nationwide.
Our values
Curated, not crowded
We'd rather stock 200 exceptional products than 2,000 mediocre ones. Every item earns its place on our shelves.
Maker-first partnerships
Fair wholesale terms, co-marketing support, and long-term relationships — because their success is our success.
Ship with care
Every order is packed by hand with sustainable materials. Gift-ready presentation is standard, not an upgrade.
How we scale specialty retail
A performance-driven approach that turns product discovery into repeat purchases.
