Discover the Butterfly Tree Boutique, Medfield's Hidden Gem

The Butterfly Tree Boutique in Medfield is celebrating its 3 year anniversary this Fall! Located at 505 Main Street, the boutique is a local hidden treasure that continues to offer a distinctive selection of clothing, jewelry, and home décor. If you haven’t yet experienced the Butterfly Tree Boutique, there’s no better time to stop by. And if it is already one of your favorite places to shop, owner Maria Piedra welcomes you to rediscover the boutique as new merchandise arrives daily.

Upon entering, you may find owner Maria Piedra chatting with customers, creating beautiful displays, or unpacking brand new merchandise. After her battle with breast cancer a few years ago, Maria a native of Marshfield Massachusetts, followed her dream of opening a gift and fashion boutique that sells eco-friendly, fair trade, re-purposed, and ethically-made products. She opened The Butterfly Tree Boutique in Medfield in 2011 and shortly after that she purchased Prelude Gifts in Needham and transformed it into a new shop, also called The Butterfly Tree Boutique. Her battle with cancer had a profound effect on her perspective as she realized that life is short and she needed to live her life-long dream of opening the boutique.

What makes The Butterfly Tree Boutique so unique is its commitment to providing items that are produced with an environmental and social conscious. For instance bracelets made from Tagua seeds are one of the many popular items that The Butterfly Tree Boutique offers. They are handmade by a fair trade group in Ecuador, and they are sourced from the locally grown and sustainable Palm Trees. The Butterfly Tree also carries Alchemy Goods, a line of bags and wallets made from reclaimed bicycle inner-tubes. You can also find unique Home Décor accessories for any taste, such as candles made from recycled wine bottles and clocks made from flattened beverage bottles. With items like these, The Butterfly Tree makes it possible to buy fashionable and fun gifts for yourself or for others while also supporting communities around the globe as well as our planet.

But the boutique doesn’t just bring in products from other countries. The Butterfly Tree Boutique is also dedicated to supporting local artists, artisans, and suppliers. Offering items that are made in the US is very import to Maria. The boutique features items such as skin care products from Molly’s Apothecary of Medway, MA; “Art by Any Means” jewelry, handmade in Gloucester, MA; Green Koala skin care products made with all natural ingredients in Marshfield, MA; and beautiful beaded bracelets created by Caroline’s Wrist Art in Walpole, MA. Maria loves to contribute to the community and shopping at the Butterfly Tree Boutique is a way to join her in supporting the local economy. Another way that the boutique gets involved with the community is by hosting fundraisers and private shopping nights for local organizations like Medfield Green.

Butterfly Tree Gift Boutique also offers fashionable clothing, jewelry, and accessories for women. Made in the USA brands such as Nally & Millie, Cubism, Lur, Last Tango, and Luxe Junkie are just a few of the brands that The Butterfly Tree Boutique offers. They have clothing for the young and the young at heart, and something to fit any budget. When it comes to jewelry, this boutique is your one-stop-shop. You can find decorative accessories for any style, and The Butterfly Tree Boutique is proud to be the only authorized dealer of Alex & Ani in the area.
