Paxton Gate
Paxton Gate has been locally owned and operated since its founding in 1992. As purveyors of curiously mind-expanding oddities inspired by the garden and the natural sciences, we have made an indelible mark on the Mission and broader Bay Area shopping scenes for generations. We at Paxton Gate are thrilled to have found a curious community that loves to learn, share, and grow with us. We hope you’ll join us and discover what’s around the next corner.
