Introducing Minga x Scarlett Poppies: a collaboration celebrating our shared passion for craftsmanship with a collection of handcrafted hats. Known for their dedication to authentic, sustainable products, Minga is an independent, women-led, and Indigenous-powered brand rooted in both San Diego, CA, and the highlands of Ecuador. Their work celebrates artisanal traditions and the natural beauty of raw materials, creating products that reflect a deep respect for nature and community.

Together, we share in the spirit of Minga by uniting our communities and artisan networks.

Let’s flourish together, with creations made to inspire, endure, and connect us across cultures and generations.
