About Us

I can't wait to meet you

Thank you for taking the time to explore the site! I am Alex Donahoe. I grew up in a small town where tiny, specialized shops were the norm. My goal is to capture that essence here in Minneapolis.

5 things to know:

1) A creek walk is my fave way to start the day

2) I love animals (please tell me about your pets when you visit)

3) I am a teacher

4) I moved to Minneapolis for college and can't imagine ever living anywhere else!

5) I love finding beautiful old things - I am excited to share them with you at Ferris

Ferris

Ferris provides a range of lifestyle products that includes trends and staples and ensures that when a customer walks through the door they will find something to fit their needs and pique their wants. In a world full of screens, shipping fees, and delivery delays, Ferris is backyard convenience in a feel-good space. 

We also know that the world has plenty of 'stuff' already. We hope to also normalize the idea of buying (and gifting!) something that is beautiful and already has a story to tell.
