Shashtin with garlands and a Vallejo house
 
 

Hi, I'm Shashtin. I moved to Vallejo in 2016, and since then I've been creating organic and homemade goods to celebrate life here in Vallejo, a town nestled in the hills at the meeting of the Napa River, San Pablo Bay and Carquinez Straight.

I make VALLEJO LOVE’s goods with treading lightly on the earth in mind. The t-shirts are 100% organic cotton, printed in Sebastopol in small batches, with water-based ink, and the salves are made with organic ingredients and beeswax from the bees in our backyard hive. Paper goods are printed on 100% recycled post consumer waste paper.

I'll add new goods to the mix as I make 'em.
