Hollie’s Homegrown Returns with Holiday Pop-Ups in Walnut Creek and Lafayette

Lafayette, CA — After closing its doors recently, a cherished local business known for its organic food and bath products, is back in time for the holiday season with two pop-up locations in Walnut Creek and Lafayette. Both pop-ups opened October 1 and will run through December 31.

The store is Hollie’s Homegrown.

In Walnut Creek, shoppers can visit the temporary store at 1372 North Main Street, across from Labels. This location is a partnership with Julia Minasian of SIP Goods, a Walnut Creek-based artist known for her watercolor textiles.

Alongside Minasian’s kitchen and home textiles, the store will showcase products from other local artisans, including jewelry, ceramics, candles, and scarves.

The Lafayette pop-up is located at 971 Moraga Rd, near Clock’s Etc. and close to Hollie’s previous storefront. This location will feature the full line of Hollie’s Homegrown products, from food items to bath and body offerings.

Additionally, the store will carry products from local artisans, some of whom previously sold their goods at Hollie’s original store, as well as new artisans.

Hollie’s Homegrown, originally established as a small organic farm in Moraga, CA, is known for its culinary and medicinal herb-based products, including herbal teas, infused oils, vinegars, and bath products.

Hollie’s business has received recognition, including a Whole Foods Market “Local Food Maker” grant and a finalist position in Martha Stewart’s “American Made” awards. Hollie was also recently named the 2024 Lafayette Business Person of the Year. Her original store closed due to extremely high rent, Hollie said at the time.

These pop-ups offer holiday shoppers a chance to support local artisans and find unique, handmade goods just in time for the gift-giving season.
