👗 UNDER THE FIG TREE BOUTIQUE CLOSING LOCATION AT THEIS HOUSE

Visit This Weekend for Sales and Free Drinks

A beloved Boerne boutique is closing its doors at the end of the month.

Under the Fig Tree announced that February 28, 2025, will be their final day in the historic Theis House.

Owner Lauren Watson and her mother, Martha, expressed deep gratitude for the support over the past four years. But don’t worry—the boutique isn’t going away entirely. They’ll be moving into Shoppes at 222 in early March.
