A Hidden Gem in the Cowichan Valley
Tucked away upstairs in the The Community Farm store, a hidden gem of magical treasures awaits you. ‘CFS for the Soul’ started as a pop-up shop in the SolCentre back in 2017 and has since relocated and expanded into the beautifully renovated mezzanine space at the Farm Store. With a bird’s eye view overlooking the hustle and bustle of the market below, here you step into an intentionally curated oasis of beautiful crystals, books, oracle decks, gifts and more!
A mountain of crystals catches the eye as you enter the store; with all colours of the rainbow sparkling in the spotlight. Unique gems of all shapes and sizes fill the shelves; Crystal clusters, points and towers, spheres, geodes, raw & polished specimens. The majority are hand picked with love from the amazing crystal pyramid on Denman Island, our long time distributor who travels far and wide to purchase direct from the source. And of course you can’t miss the table of tumbled stones, each one with a little description of its special properties, making it easy to find the perfect stone for you or a loved one. The shop features many other treasures for your sacred space, with lots of local and regionally crafted creations such as: a rainbow selection of beeswax candles from Glenora Farms (Duncan), ceramic incense holders from The Mudroom (Cowichan Bay), Art, stickers & greeting cards from Autumn Skye Morrison (Powell River), Simon Haiduk (Roberts Creek) and other local artists. Handmade gemstone necklaces by Stone & Weave (Crawford Bay) and gemstone bracelets by Venus Rose Jewellry Co. (Duncan); Gorgeous tarot/ oracle card boxes, trays & holders, moon & lotus crystal trays and crystal grids from Topaz & Pine (Chemainus). Hand forged metal gongs by Gaia tone art (Duncan)- just to name a few! Plus a sweet selection of books on crystals, astrology, meditation, energy clearing, spirituality and personal growth, oracle and tarot decks, salt & crystal lamps, prayer flags, fair trade incense and treasure bags.
Find CFS for the Soul open Monday to Saturday 11am- 3pm (closed stat holidays), upstairs in The Community Farm Store 5380 Trans-Canada Highway, in Duncan.
