THEY CAME. THEY SHOPPED. THEY RECRUITED.

The Great Mellow Monkey Migration is in full swing — and our customers have been showing up with unsuspecting friends who somehow made it this far in life without visiting us.

We’re trying not to judge them.

Bring someone who’s never been to Mellow Monkey before, enter together, and one lucky customer AND their newly enlightened friend will each win a $100 Mellow Monkey shopping spree.

$100 for you.
$100 for them.
One beautiful friendship suddenly complicated by competitive shopping.

There’s still time to migrate. But hurry. This campaign ends at 4pm Labor Day Monday.

Well, this aged annoyingly well. 🎸

Exactly one year ago today, we posted this video about our driftwood guitars.

And here we are, 365 days later, posting it again for a very good reason:

THEY’RE BACK.

We managed to get our hands on a limited number of these incredible driftwood guitars again — each one completely unique and just as ridiculously cool as we remembered.

So technically this is a “one year ago today” memory.

It just happens to be a memory you can buy.

For now. 🎸

Some people see a need in their community and wonder who is going to do something about it.

Reverend Sara Smith did something about it.

What she has built through nOURish BRIDGEPORT is extraordinary — feeding thousands of our neighbors, providing diapers and essentials for hundreds of babies, helping newcomers learn English and pursue citizenship, serving hot meals, and even creating Connecticut’s first nonprofit indoor hydroponic farm so families facing food insecurity can have access to fresh, healthy produce.

But perhaps what we admire most about Sara is that behind all those numbers are people — and she never seems to lose sight of that.

We are incredibly proud to support the organization she built and the work she continues to lead. This week, we were happy to deliver the $1,200 raised through the sale of our Mellow Monkey Mystery Boxes to nOURish BRIDGEPORT.

It’s a small contribution to something much bigger.

Thank you, Rev. Sara, for reminding all of us what it looks like when compassion is turned into action. ❤️

🚨 THE GREAT MIGRATION HAS STARTED!.

From Thursday, September 3 through Labor Day Monday, we’re asking Mellow Monkey regulars to do something very important:

Bring us someone who has NEVER been here before.

Your friend. Your neighbor. Your sister. Your coworker. That person who keeps saying, “I’ve been meaning to go there.”

Bring your First-Timer to Mellow Monkey, then both of you fill out an entry at the register. No purchase necessary.

After Labor Day, we’ll draw one winning pair.

The First-Timer gets a $100 Mellow Monkey shopping spree.
The person who recruited them gets a $100 Mellow Monkey shopping spree.

That’s $200 in shopping sprees for one successful migration.

Your assignment begins September 3.

Go forth. Recruit responsibly. 🐒

Not every day comes with a reason to celebrate. Sometimes you have to give it one.

Do something unnecessary. Treat yourself. Make an ordinary Monday feel suspiciously important.

And while you’re at it, a trip to Mellow Monkey has been known to improve otherwise average days. No occasion required.

We can’t promise eternal youth. We can, however, offer the kind of shopping experience where you suddenly forget your age, what you came in for, and the budget you very responsibly set before walking through the door.

Basically, a fountain of youth with receipts.

Are we wrong?
