Good Neighbor
Neighbor is a new and vintage home-life store owned and operated by two passionate, visionary Oakland business owners.
Neighbor will serve as a curator of home life inspiration. High style, traditional craftsmanship, local consciousness, Neighbor will embody these characteristics, with a thoroughly modern sensibility.
Neighbor is the passionate partnership of two committed women: Dana Olson, owner of Good Stock, and Karen Anderson, co-owner of Mercy Vintage Now. Through their combined talents, Neighbor will be a home and garden shop with an eclectic offering of artisan and vintage pieces.
For these women, Neighbor represents what is beautiful and unique, exotic and simple, hard to find and practical. There will be handmade, vintage and new for the home and garden, non-perishable artisan foods, and unique offerings for children. In addition to the storefront, Neighbor will have an outdoor retreat, mixed with garden furniture and accessories. In time, this outdoor space will host workshops on dyeing, weaving, planting… the ideas are endless.
We hope you will visit Neighbor and make it your first stop for home life inspiration.
