Pop-up shop · mobile festival market
Handmade, upcycled, and grown a few steps from the stand.
Banana Stand rolls into festivals and markets with natural goods made by hand — and MonkeyMike behind the counter to tell you exactly where each one came from.
Upcycled by hand
Bottle glass, salvaged wood and rescued fabric reworked into goods built to outlive the trend cycle.
Home-grown herbs
Basil, mint, sage, lemon balm and lavender raised in our own beds — sold potted, dried or bundled.
Plant-based care
Small-batch salves, balms and beeswax candles infused with what we grow. No filler, no mystery list.
We come to you
A stand on wheels. Festival fields, farmers markets, street fairs and private events all summer long.
What’s on the table
Slow goods, made in small batches, priced for real people.
Every run is limited by what we can grow, salvage and pour. If it’s on the table it was made in our kitchen, workshop or garden — usually within the last few weeks.
- Hand-poured beeswax + soy candles in reclaimed vessels
- Herbal salves and balms infused with home-grown plants
- Cut glass tumblers and planters from rescued bottles
- Woven totes and wraps from fabric offcuts
- Potted starts, dried bundles and loose tea blends
Meet the clerk
MonkeyMike keeps the stand.
Grower, tinkerer, and the person who will absolutely talk your ear off about comfrey. MonkeyMike makes the goods, drives the stand, and works the counter — so the face on the label is the one handing you the jar.
That’s the whole brand: one pair of hands, a garden, a pile of salvage, and a stand that shows up where the people are.
