about the shepherd + co

The Shepherd + Co. opened in March 2024 in Bedford Hills, New York, with a clear and thoughtful vision: to create a destination where beautiful goods, meaningful gifts, and a sense of community come together naturally.

Founded by owner and proprietor Kristin Hemick, The Shepherd + Co. is rooted in a deep appreciation for quality, craftsmanship, and the art of gifting. What began as a personal passion has become a curated fine goods and gifts boutique dedicated to elevating everyday living through pieces that feel intentional, timeless, and quietly special.

Each item in the shop is chosen with care and discernment. Our collection reflects comfort, sophistication, and discovery, featuring goods that are never mass produced and always thoughtfully sourced. We proudly support independent artisans and small brands from our local region as well as from across the United States, offering products with story, integrity, and lasting appeal.

Whether you are selecting a meaningful gift or something to enjoy in your own home, The Shepherd + Co. offers a refined yet welcoming experience. Our assortment is designed to inspire joy, encourage connection, and bring beauty to daily rituals.

Located in the heart of Bedford Hills, The Shepherd + Co. serves as a gathering place for the community and a destination for Northern Westchester and the surrounding areas. We invite you to slow down, explore, and discover something truly special.

Our focus is on delivering a thoughtful, welcoming experience and offering goods of exceptional quality, chosen with intention and care. When that commitment is acknowledged, it is a meaningful affirmation of the standards we hold ourselves to and the experience we strive to create every day.
