Fables & Fables

Fables & Fables reflects the unique character of Goshen, Indiana, a town shaped by its Mennonite heritage and the progressive academic community of Goshen College. The store opened in 2017 in the heart of a revitalized downtown that has become one of northern Indiana's most charming destinations. The peace studies and social justice sections are distinctive, drawing on the deep tradition of Anabaptist peace theology while engaging with contemporary movements for equity and nonviolence. The literary fiction selection is thoughtfully curated, and the simple living section offers practical wisdom that resonates with both faith-based and secular readers seeking a more intentional life. The cafe serves as a gathering space where college students, artists, and longtime residents share tables and conversation. The used books section provides affordable options, and the children's area hosts some of Goshen's most beloved family programming.
