EST. 2024
Nurtured is more than just a shoppe - it's a carefully curated space where timeless design meets meaningful connection. Founded by Kate Simpson, Owner and Creative Director, Nurtured opened its doors a little over eight months ago in Kelowna's vibrant and ever-evolving North End. Inspired by her desire to bring something fresh and distinctive to the Okanagan, Kate envisioned a destination that blends Scandinavian simplicity with the warmth and comfort of Canadian design.
At Nurtured, we believe in celebrating the items that hold meaning in our lives. Each piece is thoughtfully chosen, fostering a sense of connection between our past experiences and the present moments we cherish. Our curated collections are designed to inspire, inviting you to create spaces that feel both personal and purposeful.
Whether you're seeking to elevate your home with beautifully crafted decor, timeless furnishings, or meaningful gifts, Nurtured is a reflection of our belief that the items we surround ourselves with should be more than just objects—they should tell a story, evoke memories, and bring comfort to everyday life.
