A few months ago, I closed my merch shop when I discovered that the partner we had selected was shipping a small number of orders from the U.S.
I promised to come back with an all-Canadian, environmentally conscious solution — and to let you know when it’s ready.
That time has come! 🙂 My merch store is back up, albeit with only Mirror Falls merch for now (but more coming soon; see below).
I’m working with Kindred Coast, a small family-owned maker located only 45 minutes away from me and Jocelyn, on Vancouver Island.
Together with their small in-house production team (including their shop cat Luna), Hannah and Martin sew the shirts, hand-screen print the clothing, and ship from their Parksville shop.

The clothing uses sustainable fabrics such as organic cotton, recycled water bottles, bamboo, and hemp. They print with water-based inks and reuse packaging materials when shipping orders. (Orders are packed in recycled paper mailers, not plastic.)

Right now, my store is only stocking merch from my original podcast series Mirror Falls.
But rest assured the Relentless Decency line, the I Stand With Canada line, and other surprises are on their way in the coming weeks. I’ll let you know when the full lineup is there!
Thank you for your support of my work!
Every shirt sold helps me keep this work independent, and gives me the time to keep doing it properly. ❤️ I’m so very grateful.
