Brands We Love. So We Sell Them.
How It Began
A Ripple Effect began with a love for coffee and a chance encounter. Our family's journey with the shop started as customers, enjoying the unique Fair Trade goods and the warm community atmosphere. When the opportunity arose to carry on this legacy, we embraced it with open arms. Now, we're honored to continue providing beautiful and ethically sourced gifts while fostering a vibrant space for connection in the heart of Dubuque.
