Wild Iris…. We Promise We’re Still Coming Back!

|

So here we are heading into summer and we’re still waiting for the new space to be ready.  We hope you’ve been following us on Facebook where we’re posting pictures of the progress.  If not here’s a brief look at how far we’ve come from and how close we are!

While we have some downtime, we’re getting things ready behind the scenes with a fresh new inventory upgrade, online stock availability, creative displays, Wild Iris merchandise, and signage created by our bad-ass interns, and new training modules for our amazing volunteers.  We’re as anxious as you are for the space to step into reality.

In the meantime, don’t forget that you can support us by shopping online at wildirisbooks.com – we’re still offering free domestic shipping on any order over $25, and we’ve got millions of print and e-books to choose from.  Find us in the social networking world you like the most, sign up for our newsletter and stay in touch.

As soon as we know something, trust me, you’ll know!  We miss you and we’re the counting the moments until we can be a daily part of your lives again.
