About Us

Pathfinder Mercantile was born in Southeastern Virginia as a creative collaboration between friends, and today it continues as a passion project shared between two sisters. What started as a collective has naturally evolved into a space where we celebrate the art of making, in all its beautifully inconsistent forms.

I (the crochet-obsessed half) handcraft one-of-a-kind pieces whenever inspiration strikes, while my sister brings the soul of her homestead to life through small-batch goods and simple, grounded living. Together, we offer a mix of handmade, homegrown, and heart-led items that reflect our lives, not a production schedule.

Pathfinder Mercantile is also a soft landing place for other makers and creatives—people like us who might not have a “collection” but have something worth sharing. We sell what we have, when we have it, and trust that the right people will find us when the time is right.

Thanks for walking this path with us.
