The Bird and Bear Collective

"I blindly wandered into Bird & Bear last week and was absolutely delighted with the space and its mission! I was greeted with a heavenly scent and everything I saw I wanted, the space is warm and welcoming and I only wish I had more time to soak it all in. It was a pleasure to meet the owner Erin who was so friendly and passionate in describing the intention of this collaborative space and all its uses, as a retail space, workshop space, gathering place, and community hub - what an asset to the community she has built. I left feeling inspired and will be sure to return the next time I'm in Holliston!"

"A wonderful boho-chic boutique that supports fellow local businesses and hosts a fun variety of home accessories — cushions, cocktail & baking supplies, teas, posters, jewelry, and more. I also hear they host events, and have a strong social media presence if you want to learn more. Super clean, well-organized, and it smells like Christmas — makes me want to stay there all day. The owner’s friendliness & optimism are infectious. Recommended even if you just want a scented candle and some feel-good vibes."

"The Bird and Bear is so lovely! The shop is adorable and Erin Makes everyone feel welcome and has collected some really fantastic products from local makers. It’s incredible how she supports other people in the community (especially women!) and invites them into her space for pop ups or uses her space to help promote them. She truly believes in what the bird and bear stands for!"

"Bird & Bear is a fun, unique spot to shop, meet and connect! Erin is friendly, helpful and willing to accommodate your ideas! I hosted a gathering for friends and everyone loved the vibe and had a great time. The space is inviting and allowed us to celebrate our two friends and their upcoming wedding. Can’t wait to return in the future!"

"Not only is this a great little local shop to stop in for your next gift or treat your self moment, it is a wonderful outlet for connecting with the community. There’s a work shop space and weekly collaborative work gatherings. If you have an idea for a new business venture or a side hustle and need a place to sell your stuff, hold your event, what have you… talk to Erin (the shop owner), she’ll almost certainly be able to help or connect you to someone to help on the next step of your journey. I’ve enjoyed the change of pace of working here on countless mornings developing my writing projects and receiving invaluable support from like minded folks. I’ve also met so many wonderful local people here that I truly enjoy bumping into around town. It’s easy to feel really welcome and at home in this little shop/event space. If you haven’t been in yet, what are you waiting for?"
