Open Mon-Sat 10am-5:30pm, Sun 11am-4pm. We are one block from the city plaza and within three blocks of the Chico State campus. A short walk will pass by three historic museums and the locally famous and scenic Bidwell Park. Barbara and Bob Malowney started Bird in Hand in 1981 with the goal to match good quality products with customers' needs. At that time, they operated a printing and design business in Chico and felt the town needed a specialty store that dispensed fun and affordable gifts. The scope of products has grown and now the store encompasses sportswear, home decor, stationery, and toys. The departments blend throughout the store allowing a shopper to conveniently find "something for everyone". Care is taken to assure value in every product selected to be in our store. In keeping with our motto: "If we're not having fun, we're not doing it right", the folks at Bird in Hand continually promote the qualities of life in Chico by organizing and supporting community events. Annual traditions are maintained every spring at Kite Day, as well as a chilly swim on New Year's Day. The store hosts yearly the National Yo-Yo Contest and houses the National Yo-Yo Museum. The museum is popular around the country and brings many people to Chico to visit. Downtown" target="_blank">http://www.downtownchico.com/">Downtown Chico is active with frequent cultural events as well as seasonal events such as Slice of Chico, a unique downtown sidewalk sale that treats all shoppers with free watermelon slices.
