In the heart of Opelousas‘ downtown, right next to the 300-year-old Jim Bowie tree, steps away from your choice of cafés, lies a very special gift shop owned by community activist, Shawana Johnson. Wild Child Essentials hosts a variety of local Creole and African American vendors from the area. Handmade soaps, hair oils, jewelry, candles, and so much more line the shelves. This metaphysical shop is your destination for soaps, lotions, and potions as well as crystals, sage, incense, and other healing tools.
