Why locals love it

Alapash is beloved because of the owner, who regularly pops up at craft fairs around Chicago toting his gorgeous terrariums, textiles, and pottery. The store has been thriving for a few years because of its devoted fan base.

Why you should visit it

The vibrant colors and earthy scents compel most folks to leave the street and venture into this delightful locally owned shop. Most of what is carried in the shop is local, fair trade, or globally made. The plants are enough for a visit, but more than likely you'll leave with something new for your home.
