Hope & Thyme was never meant to be a capitalist venture, which is one of the bigger reasons as to why the store failed. Instead, this is a movement of interdependence and impact consciousness. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for more information on the transformation of this project, and details around upcoming happenings to organize and grow this community (finally!). ⚓️🌿
More photos of the stuff available at this weekend’s going out of business sale. 🎯EVERYTHING MUST GO! see our previous post for full details!
🚨 GOING-OUT-OF-BUSINESS SALE 🚨 THIS WEEKEND 🚨 Saturday, June 23 from 10am-2pm & Sunday, June 24 from 10am-12pm ⚓️🌿 Everything must go. We will have several posts here today and tomorrow with all of the STUFF. 😬 There is a lot of STUFF. 😳Help us dig out from all of our own stuff and the stuff from the previous tenants. We are most concerned with making sure the STUFF serves its purpose, so most things will be priced as $ make us an offer $ and we will be taking offers as low as FREE. Check out the comments below for a listing of items available. If there is something you are interested, PLEASE CALL 401-654-4488 or come by the shop; we may not be monitoring responses or questions via social media. We will also be available during the week by appointment to show anything that does not sell. Thank you for helping us ensure our departure from this space has as least of an impact as possible, and that we have the best chance of paying off as much debt as possible as we move into whatever the next phase of our journey looks like. We love you all! 🌟🚀
Only 4 blocks away from our old location on Westminster St 🎯We were able to fit the kombucha on tap system at @hudsonstreetdeli to keep the good stuff flowing. Less waste, less $. Only $3 / pint when you bring your own vessel. . . Amazing news everyone! 🎉@katalystkombucha is now available ON-TAP at Hudson Street Deli! Grab a pint bottle or growler to use over and over again, or bring your own container and fill ‘er up. 😍 Our first step of many towards reducing our community’s impact. 🌏 #zerowasteprovidence #boocheveryday #thehibuscusflavoristodiefor 🌺
Last day open at 1577 today. ☠️ You’ll be seeing us ‘round the block though. 💞
Our last day open at 1577 Westminster will be Sunday, June 10. Our remaining open hours are as follows: Saturday 6/2 & Sunday 6/3: 10am-4pm Monday 6/4: Closed Tuesday 6/5 through Friday 6/8: 3-7pm Saturday 6/9 & Sunday 6/10: 10am-4pm Our perishable inventory is almost wiped out, but we still have bulk dry goods and household cleaners. The photos here show the remaining inventory, and we are also selling off all fixtures, equipment, and supplies in the store. If you have a Thyme Share, we encourage you to come in and purchase goods for the remaining balance. Contact us if you have any questions about your balance during our open hours, either in-person or call us at 401-654-4488. In addition to the open hours above, we are available by appointment nearly any day or time, with a little bit of notice (there are several of us right in the neighborhood that can float over if someone wants to view equipment or other fixtures for sale). It is our main goal to ensure the items of value within the shop move to their next home where they can continue to be of use, so as to remain continuously conscious of the impact we have created by being consumers and retailers. Kombucha on tap from Katalyst Kombucha will be living on at our sister shop, Hudson Street Deli, 4 blocks away at 68 Hudson Street. You will be able to bring your vessel into the deli and refill. Stay tuned for more info on other changes coming to Hudson Street Deli which will make it a destination for zero-waste to-go meals. The first steps are underway to restructure Hope & Thyme as a cooperative and reform as a buying club. If you are interested in contributing to the runnings of the business and/or participating as a consumer in the cooperative, keep an eye out for an invitation to our first “town hall” type forum coming late June or early July. Finally, we have two former-employees-turned-future-cooperative-owners who are looking to generate some part-time income to sustain themselves in this transition. If anyone has any leads on suitable work for a couple of folks with extensive background in retail, merchandising, buying, herbal supplements & wellness, or bookkeeping, (more in comments)....
We will be open this week Tuesday through Friday 3-7pm and during the day for equipment sales by appointment. // Please excuse the delay in any social media responses; the best way to reach us these last final weeks will be in person or call us at 401-654-4488. We will do our best to continue to post updates on social media. The transition is overwhelming and we are grieving everything that has been stressed and pushed to the breaking point while we forged forward full steam in opening this store because we believed it was what was needed. The process to recover is slow; but underneath it all, something is stirring. We aren’t sure what it will look like yet but we know that Hope & Thyme will rise from the ashes again. Stronger and more ready to serve. 🙏🏼
Come buy our food! Only a couple weeks left here at this location, and we’ve got to empty the shelves. Our hours have been adjusted to 10am-4pm this weekend and we will post on Monday with our hours for the upcoming week. We will keep some evening and weekend hours through at least June 10. If you have a Thyme Share, we will contact you next week with your balance. 👍
