Conroe Collective, which started as a holiday pop-up shop, is now open permanently, owner Farralyn Withrow confirmed via email.

Withrow also owns Main Street Market, a farmers and artisans market open every weekend.

“I opened Conroe Collective as a showcase for local small businesses,” Withrow said. “This concept was a great way for me to combine my passion for helping local entrepreneurs, and my love for downtown Conroe and this building in particular.”

Conroe Collective is located in the former State Hotel building, which was built in 1932, Withrow said. The vendor market features 26 vendors that sell a variety of items, such as clothing, accessories, soap, candles, pottery and food.
