How it works
From roots to harvest, then tending.
No mystery, no agency theater. Here's exactly how a Canopy build grows — and what it costs to start.
- 01
Roots
A free discovery call. We learn the shop, the goals, and the people. No pitch deck — just questions.
- 02
Sketch
We map the site and show you the direction in real layouts, not lorem-ipsum mockups.
- 03
Grow
We hand-build it — design and code together — and you watch it come up week by week.
- 04
Harvest
We launch, wire up your inventory, and hand you a fast, honest storefront.
- 05
Tend
On a Care Plan, we keep it healthy: edits, updates, and a human who answers.
On pricing
Honest posture, not a hidden quote.
Builds start in a range we'll talk through on the call, scoped to your shop. Care Plans are a flat monthly you can cancel any season. No surprise line items, no "enterprise" upsell — just what your storefront actually needs.
Questions shops ask
Frequently asked.
How long does a build take?
Most shops launch in six to eight weeks. We'd rather move at the speed of getting it right than rush a template out the door.
Do you use templates or page builders?
Never. Every Canopy site is hand-coded. This very site is our Exhibit A — open the source and look.
What does it cost?
Builds start in the range we'll talk through on the discovery call, scoped to your shop. No surprise line items.
Do I have to be in Chico?
We're rooted in Chico and love working with NorCal shops, but a good signal and a shared spreadsheet go a long way.
What is the Living Storefront?
It's our inventory moat: your website shows real on-hand counts, synced from your point of sale, so what's online stays honest.
Who owns the site when we're done?
You do. The code, the content, the domain — yours. The Care Plan is a choice, not a leash.
