Stone Cottage

After produce and herb shop Limbo closed in Southeast, Joshua Stephens revamped the space in which he had been a manager for nearly a decade and opened Stone Cottage. The latter-day apothecary honors its predecessor with a curated selection of herbs, spices, and loose-leaf teas alongside artisanal soaps, seaweed, and fresh pastries from Pearl Bakery. The shop keeps its wares in rows of accessible glass jars, which shoppers can ogle, smell, or tap with a timpani mallet. An onsite florist makes the storefront vivid with living flowers and herbs ready for planting.
