We’re going full speed ahead on our move to our new location at 304 Cook Street, but that means that things are a little chaotic around the store at the moment. We’re still getting new product, though January does tend to be a little slower. And even though we have dismantled and moved our fridge to our new location, we still have some chilled product in some temporary fridges. We’re here at our original location—seven days a week, 10 am to 9 pm—for now, but we’re looking to open at our new location in February. Stay tuned!
