🎨 About Sofie’s Summer Shop
Sofie’s Summer Shop is a women-owned small business run by Sofie Green, offering a limited-run opportunity to personalize tote bags, hoodies, crew necks, and cross-body bags. This new addition features exclusive Martha’s Vineyard-shaped patches, sparkly accents, and designs for everyone.
The original Sofies’s Summer Shop is located on Circuit Avenue, which is currently housing Books Among Friends, a pop-up benefiting Oak Bluffs Library programming. For now, you can find Sofie’s Summer Shop pop-up at Island Outfitters in Healy Square throughout the off-season.
