The Backyard Bee’s — New Bern, NC

The Backyard Bee’s is a locally owned vendor marketplace, home décor shop, and treasure-hunting destination in New Bern, North Carolina. Despite the name, this is not a beekeeping or honey business. The store brings together independent local vendors offering an ever-changing selection of new, vintage, antique, handmade, and carefully refinished merchandise.

Shoppers can explore furniture, home décor, collectibles, gifts, seasonal decorations, clothing, children’s items, locally made products, garden décor, and other one-of-a-kind finds. Individual vendor booths give the store plenty of variety, so the merchandise, styles, and available items regularly change. Whether you are furnishing a home, searching for a distinctive gift, collecting vintage pieces, or simply enjoying a good treasure hunt, there is always something new to discover.

The Backyard Bee’s also supports area makers and small businesses through vendor booths, special sales, classes, and community shopping events. Its outdoor vendor markets and parking-lot events may feature local artisans, baked goods, food vendors, handmade products, and seasonal merchandise.

Local shoppers frequently recognize the business for its broad selection, reasonable prices, upcycled and painted furniture, vintage collectibles, and relaxed browsing experience. With thousands of Facebook followers and an established presence in the New Bern community, The Backyard Bee’s is a worthwhile stop for anyone who enjoys shopping small and finding items that are not available in ordinary retail stores.
