Tea is the most consumed drink on earth after water, and pretty much every culture that drinks it has its own unspoken rules around how to do it "right."

Big news from From the Ground Up Books & Resources! We just launched our very own Patreon, and it covers the whole FTGUB family, not just one project.

Your support helps fuel everything we’re building in Shepherdsville and La Grange: the bookstore, Pinkies Out Tea Parlor, Weirdos in the Wild, Salt River Current, The Signal, and more.

There are a few different ways to join in, each with its own perks. If you’ve ever wanted a behind the scenes look at how it all comes together, this is your chance.

Link in the comments. Thank you for being part of the FTGUB story!

When I opened From the Ground Up Books, I hoped it would become more than a bookstore. I hoped it would become a place where people could gather, discover new ideas, meet local creators, and feel like they belonged.

Looking back at everything we’ve built together, I’m incredibly grateful.

Today I’m taking the next step by launching the From the Ground Up Books Society on Patreon. If you’ve ever wanted to help us continue creating author events, workshops, podcasts, children’s programs, and all the other things that happen between the bookshelves, this is one of the best ways to do it.

Whether you decide to join or simply continue cheering us on, thank you. None of this would exist without this amazing community.

Great stories don’t just happen. They’re built together.

Over the past year, our community has helped make possible more than 130 events that brought readers, writers, artists, historians, and neighbors together.

Every author talk.
Every writing workshop.
Every story hour.
Every cup of tea shared around a table.
Every podcast.
Every creative conversation.

None of it happens by accident.

Today, we’re excited to introduce the From the Ground Up Books Society, our Patreon community for those who believe independent bookstores can be more than places to buy books. They can be places where communities grow.

As a member, you’ll receive behind-the-scenes updates, early announcements, exclusive content, and special member benefits. More importantly, you’ll be helping us continue creating meaningful opportunities throughout our community.

If From the Ground Up Books has ever introduced you to a great book, a favorite author, a new friend, or a memorable experience, we’d be honored to have you join us.

Together, we’re building something that lasts.

Thank you for believing in local books, local creators, and the power of community. ❤️

A peek at what goes into setting a table for a Pinkies Out party. Every detail, from the china to the tea selection, gets thought through before your guests walk in. This is what "seen, not sold to" looks like in practice.

Here's what a Pinkies Out party actually includes: your own seating, full Cream Tea service, and a space that feels like it was made for the occasion (because it was). Shepherdsville and La Grange both have room for your group. Check availability at
