“A welcome and much-needed addition to Kingston! Folk has crafted a beautiful space filled with a great variety of (mostly local) goods. Soaps, shaving supplies, kitchen items, snacks - the selection is extensive, and the prices are very reasonable. You can bring your own containers, or paper bags are also provided.”
