The latter is situated in Brooklin, a small town that attracts the same kind of creatives as that other Brooklyn, who check into the Brooklin Inn and shop at Brooklin General Store. “I set out to make a life, not just a livelihood,” says owner Em Gift, “one that serves art, community, and the gentle work of living well.”
