Taking inspiration from the mom and pop general stores once seen in our communities, we offer a diversity of goods for creative living.
MOD GEN is a modern take on the classic general stores once seen in our communities. Gardening and garden design was the passion that first launched us in 2001, but we quickly learned that our love of great design and a thirst for creative living had fueled an evolution into something more than a garden store. In 2014, we decided a contemporary twist to the classic general store seemed the perfect way to sum up the wide variety of products we now carry. Whether they spark a twinge of nostalgia or scream contemporary cool, we search local and afar to bring you creative, well-designed products for everyday living. We believe it's about life’s simple pleasures; a well made bar of soap, a garden tool that fits your hand just right or that classic ice cream scoop like the one your grandmother had. Our Mission is to provide great products and creative ideas to inspire your own signature style. Our mission is heavily influenced by the desire to support our local community with quality goods for creative living. We are proud to support numerous local, U.S., eco-friendly and fair trade artisans and makers. We also carry many of the name-brands you love without having to go to a mall or big box store. As we continue to bring in new product throughout the seasons, we are constantly looking for locally produced items to balance our internationally produced goods. MOD GEN is excited to offer this diversity of goods for a variety of shoppers. Our customers support not only the store, but a staff of four full-time employees (two of which are also artists) and various community programs. Thanks for shopping small!
