Since our inception in December 2013, the Nutmeg Collective has become a reputable source for high-quality locally-made artisan goods. We know exceptional work when we see it, and we have worked hard to bring together a network of the most authentic of small businesses: the makers, the artists, and the creative minds across Connecticut. Our goal has always been to support the needs of the makers through our extensive network of small businesses, owners, and their support staff.
The Nutmeg Collective provides resources that maker businesses need, including social media expertise, brand reviews, and wholesaling and consignment advice.

Connect small business creatives with like-minded individuals
Offer business workshops with topics geared toward creative small business
Provide niche services designed specifically for micro businesses
Connect creatives with retail establishments, media outlets, and market masters
Provide honest and helpful small business advice
“Joining the Nutmeg Collective was one of the best “business” decisions I’ve made. This group has been an invaluable source of information, opportunities, and best of all, support. Our leaders are amazingly committed, and the members are constant cheerleaders- no success is too small! My business has indeed grown since joining, but more importantly than that is the sense of community that I’ve come to count on since becoming part of the Collective. I’m proud to call my fellow “Nutmeggers” colleagues, and friends.”
