OCTOBER

October at Willow & Fli is about connection, comfort, and little joys.

As the weather warms and the fields bloom, we’re reminded to slow down and savour life’s simple pleasures; a good cup of coffee, fresh flowers in the garden, laughter with grandkids, and time spent with people who make us feel seen.

Here’s what’s happening this month:

☕ October 1 International Coffee Day

For us, coffee is more than caffeine, it’s a ritual. A moment to pause, reset, and connect. Whether it’s catching up with a friend, sipping solo before the day begins, or browsing our boutique with a takeaway in hand, it’s about those small rituals that bring joy.
