Echo Market — Local services in Woodstock

I was walking through downtown Woodstock yesterday on a little excursion from where my family and I are staying in New Hampshire. I saw that the store offered holistic goods and immediately had to go inside. The shop is so beautifully curated, filled with so many of my favorite brands I've been following on Instagram, and many more! I was getting a little hangry and needed to eat (we all know how that goes) so I left without purchasing anything. Luckily for me, my boyfriend and two family members found ourselves back in Woodstock to get lunch at The Village Butcher, so I knew I needed a second trip around Echo. (By then I had already followed them on social media, and signed up for their email list). I had a few things that I was going to grab in person, that I found on their website, and was able to find them quickly. Both visits, the employees were so cheerful and knowledgable about the products they had. I had been chatting back and forth with Victoria, the owner, on Instagram, so when I saw her in the shop today, I made to sure let her know who I was. Truly, a beautiful, gracious, kind and intelligent woman, who exudes her vision of sharing her knowledge of good for you and good for the earth with those who meet her. I am so SO glad I stopped in, and so glad I got to chat with everyone in the shop today.

Masterfully curated bliss-product haven. A local apothecary for the totality of your wellness. They have curiosities here you didn’t know existed, can’t get online, and that support local farms and artisans. Walked in with that “what’s goin’ on here?” look on my face, and walked out, bag in hand, feeling like new man.

The way the staff and ownership operate together in harmony is something to behold, and there is none of that being stared at from behind the counter hoping you touch something so that they can ooze all over you. This shop has a special vibe where one can make it one’s own experience. Clearly mission driven, everything just lines up.

While being small in footprint, one can spend over an hour in here and never feel crowded/rushed and no pressure to buy. Everything breathes. Check out (their lovingly dubbed) “the perfect boyfriend” collection of scents if you are shopping for the masculine side.

Hard to put into words, it felt like my own private self-care time when I was in there. Products sell themselves, each with their own story.

Totally forgot to take pictures when I was in there because I forgot about my cell phone for an hour, which speaks volumes. This is what...

Echo Market is an absolute gem in Woodstock, VT! The shop offers an exquisitely curated collection—there’s truly something for everyone here. Victoria, one of the owners, is the sweetest. She’s so personal and attentive—she even remembered the exact scent of a deodorant I bought months ago when I couldn’t recall it myself. That kind of care and thoughtfulness makes shopping here such a joy. I’ll be coming back for...
