Be Smart & Stay Healthy

5/6 Covid-19 Update

Bluefrog will be closed until June 4th to ensure the wellness of our customers and staff.

This decision is based on the continued increase of cases and staying out of harm's way. More importantly we believe staying closed is the best way not to be a vehicle for this virus due to the somewhat tight confines of our store.  We believe there are too many unknown factors as to how easy the virus is transmitted. It's reassuring to hear the requests to reopen as we know you would love to pop in.  We hope other businesses that open will be able to follow the guidelines that are necessary to keep  themselves safe, as well as their customers. 

We will be experimenting with pickup sales at the store one or two days a week where you would be able to pick out products purchased through portals and pick up items in the back of the store.  

Stay tuned for details on the website.  We are designing this feature currently.  However, we have been taking orders from customers  that reach us through the website portal. bluefrogimports.biz  , Instagram, and Facebook. 

We have implemented rigid sanitation protocol for ourselves and our staff during pick-up periods and we hope that the Downtown Woodstock community continues to follow recommended Covid safety precautions as businesses begin to reopen in the foreseeable future.

With Love,

Covid-19 Update

Hey Bluefrog fans!

Hope this message finds you well.  We wanted to bring you all the latest news regarding COVID-19 and how we at Bluefrog plan to move forward.  We are continuing to make  adjustments to ensure the safety of employees while still providing uninterrupted services for our brand.

What does this mean for the Bluefrog brand?  Gratefully, we will still be able to provide you all with limited items you have grown to love. We are offering limited pick-up services at the store on Tuesdays.   All of our online purchases will be sent out on Tuesdays as well.  Unfortunately, the entire industry is grappling with challenges and we're seeing delays in our ability to send your online orders in a timely manner. 

We will continue to post updates as we receive them here. Thank you for your patience during this time.  We pray you all are staying safe and healthy.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out via email, our online contact form or any one of our social media channels. 

peacefully,

​
