ECO-FRIENDLY GIFT SHOP, RE GIFTS
MERGES INTO SISTER STORE, TWIN CITIES GREEN 

Ryan and Tina North, co-owners of Re Gifts (Minneapolis' highly acclaimed eco-friendly gift shop) will close the doors at their Cedar and 42nd Street location by the end of June and merge into their newest green retail endeavor, Twin Cities Green.  Located on Hennepin Avenue South in the Uptown area of Minneapolis, TC Green has become the go-to store for eco-conscious and regular folk, looking to consume, but make less of an impact on the environment.

"Consolidating into one location better serves our customers and our mission.  We've worked hard to develop two distinctly different collections at our two stores.  The notion of bringing all of our wonderful finds together in one location is very exciting.  By combining the two, we cut down on our own and our customer's traveling, use fewer resources, and lower our carbon footprint."  -Ryan North, Owner

Twin Cities Green, recently featured in MPLS/StPaul Magazine as the "Best Antidote for Green Guilt" sells eco-friendly products for your home and life such as furniture, home décor, art, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, outdoor necessities and accessories, baby items and sustainable, life enhancing products.  With the addition of Re Gifts' inventory, TC Green will add jewelry, handbags and purses, and a deeper selection of artistic sculptures, decor, recycled paper greeting cards, notebooks and stationery, natural children's toys, and more.
