On November 3, 2023, Roots & Roost, Co. officially opened its doors, bringing a lifetime of love for vintage finds and antique treasures into a real, brick-and-mortar store. What began as an almost 30-year-old hobby—scouring garage sales, flea markets, and antique shops, repurposing furniture, and finding unique decor—turned into a shop after a “pop-up antique store” I hosted during a weekend garage sale.
In a town that hadn’t seen an antique store for over 15 years, I figured the community was ready for something special. We became the third antique shop in the county. So, when I signed the lease on a space that felt like “home” right away, the journey to bring Roots and Roost to life began. And what a journey it was!
