💛 Home Sweet Lemon Fair 💛

48 years ago today, the Alvarez family purchased this beautiful little building from the Long family, where the Longs ran the local Arthur Long General Store. With Gay Alvarez at the helm, The Lemon Fair moved into what would become our forever home. 💛

And as it happens to be… it’s also Valentine’s Day. Which feels just right.

Because this shop has always been about love.
Love for Sewanee.
Love for thoughtful gifts.
Love for gathering, celebrating, and showing up for one another.

For 48 years, these walls have held birthday surprises, graduation gifts, “just because” treasures, and so many Valentine’s treats. We’re so grateful to still be here, designing, curating, and sharing this space with you.

To our sweet community, thank you for loving Lemon Fair right back. 🍋💛

Stop in today and celebrate with us, whether you’re shopping for your Valentine or just spreading a little extra love.
