There’s many layers to Tracy’s Little gift shop which have built up over the years.

The retail side has always focused on sustainability with the eco candles being the best sellers at gift fairs and locally at Bella June Flowers , The Stables Collaboration (located at The Sportsman Pub ) & TeaThyme.

Supporting local businesses is another work joy for me and has seen the growing success of the monthly Mantra Meet Ups
Held at a local venue with no booking required and no fee to pay .
The relaxed networking Meet Ups encourage small businesses to collaborate and support each other.

The newest venture is as a sales associate for The Family Grapevine magazine.  As more of us are endeavouring to shop locally it’s a great resource for families to find what is on their doorstep. For enquiries please email  thefamilygrapevine@gmail.com.

About Tracy

Like so many of us, Tracy King had seen the reports about plastic pollution and the climate crisis, and like so many of us she felt entirely overwhelmed by it all. But her wake-up call was back in 2018. “I had a reaction to a skin product,” she explains, “and I suddenly realised that the planet must be having a similar reaction too. I had to do something, even if it was something small.” 

Tracy began cutting back on plastics, chemicals, and unnecessary spending, not just at home but also in her gift business. With an ethos of planet before profits, she started scaling back to sell solely sustainable and eco-friendly products. Now Tracy takes her message of small-scale sustainability with her wherever she goes, including local markets and makers’ fairs across the South East, another of her passions.

“Buying from a local market is such an all-round memorable experience,” she says warmly. “You get to talk to the makers and sellers, share coffee and cake, and you can see the difference you’ve made with your purchases right there with a real life smile.”

For Tracy it’s these small things, collectively, that can make the big difference to our natural world. It’s in our hands to be the change we want to see. Thanks to Tracy that just got a little bit easier.
