If you are looking to revamp your patio with new furniture this summer, head over to the Greenwich Exchange for Women’s Work, a non-profit organization that supports artisans-consignors.
The Greenwich Exchange offers vintage, home-made, and hand-crafted items including linens, children’s clothing, antiques and collectibles, and holiday gifts.
Enter through the shop and step outside to the lovely garden courtyard where there is an array of vintage restored furniture and pieces from Brown Jordan including tables, chairs, and planters. Customers who buy a $750 of garden furniture will receive $100 off; this offer lasts until June 30.
The Greenwich Exchange located at 28 Sherwood Place has been open since 1935. The founders of the Exchanges set out to provide a shop where women in need could earn money by consigning their home-made items to the Exchanges shop. As you enter the shop, there are gloves, masks, and hand sanitizer available for customer use. Greenwich Exchange is operating at normal hours: M-F 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM and Sat 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM.
