New to WSM: Clean Cause Yerba Mate

When it comes to an energizing ingredient without the jitters, nothing comes close to yerba mate, a tea-like concoction made from the South American Ilex paraguariensis tree. This certified organic, natural sparkling energy drink packs 24 Vitamins & Minerals, 15 Amino Acids with only 30 calories per serving. Available in Peach, Blackberry, and Raspberry flavors in our center store beverage case.
The cause: 50% of Clean Cause’s profits fund their giveback initiative coined “CLEAN Kickstarts.” They’re 30-day sober living scholarships in high-accountability homes intended to give individuals fresh out of rehab the opportunity to focus on finding a job and establishing a recovery support system, this bridge between rehab and reintegration into everyday life is critical.

Sidewalk Sale Saturday July 14th!

Perfect Summer Event!

Sponsored annually for over 50 years by the Chamber of Commerce, and held every year on the third Saturday in July, the origins of the Sidewalk Sale date back to the 1920’s, when merchants put their wares on the sidewalks for sale. In recent years the Event has expanded to include a “Pre-Sale” day on Friday for New Canaan’s local merchants to put all of their merchandise out on the Sidewalk.
The fair offers local residents and regional visitors an action-packed, bargain-filled, entertaining, and delicious way to spend a summer day in one of the most charming towns in Connecticut. The event always offers many family friendly activities, with merchants showcasing an amazing array of products and services. Sure, there’s a little inventory spring cleaning going on, where many of the best deals spawn from, but some merchant’s have specifically ordered their customers’ favorite items to be sold at discounted prices exclusively during the Sidewalk Sale.
And stop by the Walter Stewart’s Farmstand on Elm Street for great deals on the freshest local produce!
