We are excited to announce that our retail shop in Lerwick is now open.
You can find Da Potting Shed on the corner of Fort Road and Harbour Street, Lerwick, in the building that originally housed Cindy's hairdressers. The shop backs on to our plant yard and we are hoping to join the two together soon to make it easy to access one from the other.
We are open Tuesday to Sunday 11am to 5pm.
James has been fitting out the shop with shelves re purposed from Debenhams stores and has lined the walls and built a made to measure desk for the till. Carol has painted the shop in a white to create a bright and airy feel and the till desk in a warm grey. Lynne has kindly made voile curtains for the windows.

The team spent the weekend pricing the stock, getting it set out on the shelves and making the shop welcoming for you to visit. We have more stock coming soon and it's always worth keeping an eye on our DaBarnLerwick Facebook page for updates on new additions.
Stock ready to put out on to the shelves.

James has designed the shop layout to include a gallery area where local artists and crafters can display their work for sale. We are delighted to announce that Kelly Robertson Art, Kev Forth Photography, Corey Mason from Da Auld Kirk and Alison Smedley's Good Gub soaps are already installed in the gallery.
