Willow & Wand
Bookstore Cafe
Help us open the doors
We're so close. Our permits are approved, the floors are in, and the bookshelves, books, and coffee equipment are waiting in the building. A few big pieces of construction that aren't in our hands have put us about two months behind, and while we wait, the bills keep coming. Here's how you can help us open the doors.
We're almost open. Help us cross the finish line: $13,000 by Halloween.

Our goal is $13,000 by Halloween, and every dollar goes toward getting our doors open. [Tap here to give.]

Where Stories
Take Root.
We’re a little bit Taylor Swift, a little bit Hogwarts, and a whole lot of heart: a community for readers, dreamers, and doers who know that passion needs a village to grow. I’m a therapist by trade, and I built this space because I believe in the healing power of stories, the courage of creative leaps, and the necessity of people who’ll cheer you on (and hand you a hot drink when the late nights get real).
Here, you’ll find encouragement, practical wisdom, and a cozy place to fall in love with reading… or rediscover the part of you that wanted to create in the first place. We’re saving a seat for you at the table. Bring your idea; we’ll bring the community, the guidance, and the bibliophile-level enthusiasm.

ABOUT
jORDAN (JL)
Jordan is the woman behind Willow & Wand—a former creative director turned therapist who combined her background in storytelling and mental health to create something more intentional.
She believes in the kind of stories that make people feel understood, the importance of slowing down, and that meaningful spaces don’t have to be complicated to matter.
She’s usually reading two books at once, overthinking a playlist like it’s a Taylor Swift deep cut, or bouncing between ideas as they come together.
