Our Story
Who We Are
Elysian Fields is a family-owned, independent bookstore and gift shop rooted in the Sarasota community for over three decades. Since opening our doors in 1991, we have remained committed to creating a welcoming space for reflection, curiosity, and meaningful connection.
Our Story
Founded in 1991, Elysian Fields has long been a destination for those seeking inspiration, insight, and a deeper connection to themselves and the world around them. Over the years, the store has evolved while staying true to its original purpose: to offer thoughtfully chosen books, gifts, and spiritual tools in an environment that feels calm, open, and inviting.
As a Sarasota legacy business, we are proud to have served generations of locals and visitors alike. Many of our customers first discovered Elysian Fields decades ago and continue to return—bringing friends, family, and new stories with them. That continuity and community connection remain at the heart of everything we do.
What You’ll Find at Elysian Fields
We curate a wide range of books, gifts, and spiritual tools with intention and care. Our offerings are selected to support mindfulness, personal growth, and thoughtful living—whether you’re just beginning your journey or have been exploring for years.
In addition to our retail offerings, we host intuitive services and community events that invite reflection, learning, and connection. Every experience at Elysian Fields is guided by respect, integrity, and a deep appreciation for individuality.
Our Values
We believe in authenticity, inclusivity, and honoring each person’s unique path. Elysian Fields is a space where curiosity is welcomed, questions are encouraged, and exploration happens at your own pace.
Above all, we value community—supporting local artists, practitioners, and creators while offering a place that feels grounded, warm, and human in an increasingly fast-paced world.
