Black Lily Naturals will host a grand opening for its new storefront at 1700 I St in Sacramento on November 14, 2026. The new space will feature personal care products alongside a DIY candle-making bar.

Seven ounce candles are priced at $24. The new retail space is situated at 1700 I St.

Market Landscape

This move reflects the ongoing trend of local farmers market vendors graduating to independent retail storefronts in Sacramento. It positions Black Lily Naturals to compete directly with boutique home-goods retailers by securing a permanent physical presence.

Shoppers can now purchase personal care goods and candles at the 1700 I St location instead of only at local markets. Customers are also invited to utilize the new DIY candle-making bar on-site.

The takeaway

Supporting local entrepreneurs who expand from small market stalls helps sustain the unique retail character of city neighborhoods. Residents interested in DIY home goods now have a new local venue to create custom products.
