Downtown Brattleboro has no shortage of unique shopping for all ages and genders. For the ladies, one store in particular will draw you in: Verde, or sometimes called Verde Home and Garden Store. But don’t let the name mislead you. Peir 1 Imports doesn’t hold a candle to this little gem in downtown Brattleboro. You’ll have trouble finding these items in any other store but Verde, and will more than likely see some of their items around our inn just blocks away. From local and international flairto gifts for kids, Verde has a distinct spread of eclectic, unique shopping for anytime of the year.

In downtown Brattleboro, it all starts with the storefront. Regardless of the season, plants and home furnishings sit playfully on the sidewalk calling my name every time I walk by. (Tim thinks I may have a problem.) Inside sits an eclectic mix of quirky garden supplies, jewelry, fashion accents pieces, books, umbrellas for a rainy day, stationary, home decor and unique gifts for your favorite ladies back at home. Some of my favorites are the showers curtains and scarves, many of which have a bright, springy, vintage feel. And the wall clocks ……. I LOVE the wall clocks! They hang nicely lit on the side wall in orange, yellow, sea green, red and blue and make a great, unique gift for anyone who likes to mix the old and the new. The clocks are must see, but the garden section also has a flavor hard to find at your typical decor store. Not only is the presentation great, the prices are modest and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Verde’s eclectic feel fits right in with the shopping in downtown Brattleboro and the culture in southern Vermont. Whether you’re passing through or staying at our inn, drop by Verde and see for yourself. And don’t forget about the clocks!!
