We have resumed regular hours and are now Open: Wednesday thru Saturday, 11 am to 3 pm. Thank you all for your patience, and we hope to see you soon! 🙂

A big thank you to all our loyal customers for your patience and your support! ❤️ Beginning next week, Raven’s Nest will be open on Thursdays and Fridays by appointment – please contact us at RavensNestBC@gmail.com or 250-358-2178 to set up a time. By mid-June we are planning to reopen with regular store hours. We look forward to seeing you soon! 🙂

Raven’s Nest has been temporarily Closed until such time as it is appropriate to reopen. Please check here for updates and take care!

Raven’s Nest is now open four days a week – Wednesday thru Saturday – for your shopping pleasure. Our sale on last season’s ladies eco-fashions continues as we make room for Spring/Summer 2020.

As you hunker down for another white season, you may be interested to know that our shelves are currently chock full of wonderful books – not to mention beautiful journals and world music CDs – and a lot of those titles are by regional and provincial authors. Recent arrivals include our own Lila Strand’s newly-revised paperback edition of Little Star: A Hidden Seed, the sequel to her beloved The Star Children; Revy author Laura Stovel’s Swift River: Stories of the First People and First Travellers on the Columbia River around Revelstoke; and two collections of ‘essays on ecology’ by the late, great Stan Rowe of New Denver: Home Place (Revised edition) and Earth Alive.

Some of our most popular titles are from Kootenay-born author Iona Whishaw. Her Lane Winslow mystery series is set in post-WWII Nelson and area, incorporating many regional landmarks that are familiar to local residents. We have all six books that make up the series, while a seventh installment is eagerly expected in April. The Globe and Mail calls it “a terrific series” and says Whishaw is “a writer to watch,” while Kirkus Reviews has deemed it “relentlessly exciting.” Why not spice up your winter – or that of a loved one – with this engrossing series?

Our annual Holiday Customer Appreciation Sale has begun: All clothing and blankets are at least 10% off the regular price, while the rest of the store is 5% off.

We are so grateful for every one of our loyal, local customers who supports us throughout the year, and will be open every day through December 24th for your shopping pleasure!

We currently have a nice selection of beautiful wooden chopsticks from Japan. Whether you prefer a colourful pair to brighten up your table setting at home, or a more understated pair to use instead of disposable utensils when you go out, Raven’s Nest has you covered. Chopsticks also make great gifts!

In November Raven’s Nest will be open just four days a week, Wednesday – Saturday, 10:30 am to 4:00 pm, but from December 2 to December 24 we will be open every day for your shopping pleasure. In addition to our wide array of planet conscious gifts, from next week we will have a fine selection of ornaments on display, so please keep us in mind as you prepare for the holidays.

In the hopes of a more eco-friendly future for our planet, Raven’s Nest will join in tomorrow’s Climate Strike. Closed for the first half of the day, we will be open this Friday, September 20, from 1:30 – 4:30 pm. Wherever you are, if willing and able please join us! 🙂
