  • The Local Radish is a holistic handmade goods store located in Indianapolis, IN. We offer items sourced with intention such as crystals, herbs, art, jewelry, etc. All are welcome to come and explore our offerings!

    Along with this, we aim to be a safe space for our community, and to be a catalyst for connection.

  • There is parking available all around the building, including behind the storefront, and street parking available in the surrounding neighborhood.

  • We get this question often when people first visit us. There is a lot to look at in the store so we understand it can be overwhelming!

    We are here to help with any questions you have! There are no silly questions. We also have multiple little written guides throughout the store to help with things like candle color meaning, a guide for the sages we offer, etc.

    We are never here to tell you what “the right way” is. We are simply here to help guide with intention and purpose.

    When it comes to starting your journey through spirituality, we always recommend starting with exploring your ancestry. We understand that this is something not everyone has access to, but there are things we are drawn to for a reason; trust your intuition! Everyone’s individual journey is going to be different!

    We always encourage everyone to do their own research and be sure to be mindful and respectful of closed practices.

    We have many books and resources at the store to help! Along with this, we will be bringing forward classes to our community through our collective that will also be offered online!

  • We are very passionate about fair trade practices.

    When it comes to our crystals, Britt, our founder, has worked for many years to build relationships with small, family-owned mines and businesses.

    Any sage such as white sage or sweetgrass that is connected to native traditions is sourced directly from native communities and, is supporting them directly.

    Our oddities such as bones, pinned bugs, etc. are also sourced ethically. For bones we go through local farmers, trappers that only hunt for population control, etc. Our bugs are sourced through creators that are also mindful of ethical sourcing that understand the importance of species conservation.

    Our art, jewelry, stickers, etc. are bought outright from artisans. We do not work on consignment, meaning artists are paid directly.

    We believe in transparency in sourcing. If you have any questions pertaining to how we source our products, feel free to reach out to us!

  • Crystals are wonderful talismans of intention. Every crystal has a different structure, meaning some may be able to interact with different elements than others! So, please do your research on your crystal before cleansing it, as some crystals dissolve in elements such as water! Feel free to contact us or come in anytime with any questions you may have!

    We will also soon be offering classes on crystals so stay tuned!
