Welcome to the Market
a collection of clothing, accessories, art, and everyday goods for a slower way of living.
We bring together independent brands, artists, and craftspeople alongside our own designs. Chosen with care for their materials, craftsmanship, and the people behind them.
Made by MINGA
Minga is an independent, women-led brand based between California, USA and Imbabura, Ecuador. A community centered around conscious creation and care. Together we create timeless wearables and experiences that celebrate creativity and craftsmanship.
Launching their first collection in 2018 after partnering with a small group of talented women in the highlands of Ecuador.
“We spent months living with this community to understand their story and craft. This season birthed our vision to create beautiful products through sustainable and traditional means. We are an ever-expanding community constantly choosing a different rhythm than mainstream fashion, one that remains true to ourselves and our Earth.”
What is a minga? When a task is too large for the individual, a minga is organized. The whole community participates and makes the task a reality through collective collaboration. This is how houses are built, crops are harvested and roads are kept well.

Anney Life Designs
Anney Life Designs is an independent brand by leather artisan Annsley Edwards. A classically trained pianist, piano teacher, meditation instructor, wife, and mother. Annsley’s creativity takes many forms. Her handcrafted leather goods bring another dimension to that life of music, making, and connection.
Working with full-grain leather, she creates pieces that celebrate the material’s natural character. Bags, wallets, wine totes, and journals become everyday companions - carried through busy afternoons, tucked under an arm, or opened during a quiet moment to yourself. With use, the leather develops a patina, holding traces of the life you bring to it.
There’s something special about knowing the person behind what you carry. Annsley brings that connection into your everyday: a useful object, an artist’s hand, and a piece you keep making your own.
