Learn about the family with over 75 years of combined experience!
Nature Knows Best opened in 2000 as a basic Arts & Crafts Store offering just a small sample of products. However, as time went on, we developed a reputation as the leading Arts & Crafts Store in San Francisco .
Since then, we’ve increased our product selection and now stock tools, equipment and materials for crafters of every type. We’ve also become one of the central places in San Francisco for learning new arts and crafts skills. We have a large selection of free classes and workshops as well as paid courses for makers with all levels of experience.
