Sunlit Sprout Collective

Sunlit Sprout Collective is a mock.shop sample store for building against a garden and outdoor lifestyle shop before a real Shopify store is ready. The catalog includes watering cans, gardening trowels and tool sets, seed kits, pots and planters, candles, wind chimes, and straw hats. There are 60 products across five collections. Each product has one option selector; its label and choices depend on the item.

mock.shop is an auth-free Shopify Storefront GraphQL API backed by sample reference stores. Find out more about mock.shop sample stores.

Example Sunlit Sprout Collective query

Here’s an example GraphQL POST request that retrieves options and variant prices for one product from https://garden.mock.shop/api:

curl https://garden.mock.shop/api \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"query":"{ product(handle: \"classic-heritage-flower-pot\") { id title options { name values } variants(first: 50) { pageInfo { hasNextPage } nodes { id title selectedOptions { name value } price { amount currencyCode } compareAtPrice { amount currencyCode } availableForSale } } } }"}'

This query retrieves Classic Heritage Flower Pot, including option values, variant IDs, selected options, availability, and current and compare-at prices. Use the selected variant’s ID and price when adding it to a cart.

The endpoint doesn't require authentication or an access token. Read https://garden.mock.shop/llms.txt for catalog details and store-specific instructions.

What this catalog lets you test

Build a garden shop with tools, planters, seeds, and gifts for an outdoor space. Sunlit Sprout Collective provides 60 products across five collections, enough for a browsable product grid and carts that mix practical supplies with decorative pieces. Their products use one selector each, and some include compare-at prices for sale cards. Keep selectors tied to the supplied data: the Classic Heritage Flower Pot has a sample Seed Variety option, not a pot-size selector. Don’t turn that unusual label into planting advice.

Preview the catalog in a storefront by opening https://garden.hydrogen.mock.shop in a browser.

Build with an AI coding tool

To build a garden and outdoor lifestyle storefront with Sunlit Sprout Collective using Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable, or another AI assistant, copy the prompt below. It gives the assistant the store domain and directs it to the catalog instructions before it starts writing code.

Build me a Hydrogen storefront using garden.mock.shop as the store domain. Setup instructions: garden.mock.shop/llms.txt

Shopify also provides a mock.shop starter project: a Hydrogen storefront with product pages, collection browsing, and a working cart already connected to mock.shop. You or your AI coding tool can customize this code instead of building those pieces from scratch.

Follow the repository’s setup instructions, then set PUBLIC_STORE_DOMAIN=garden.mock.shop in .env and restart the dev server to use Sunlit Sprout Collective’s catalog. Leave PUBLIC_STOREFRONT_API_TOKEN empty; mock.shop doesn’t require a token.

Move to a real Shopify store

mock.shop uses fictional, read-only catalog data. Cart operations work, and checkout is mocked: no payment is taken and no real order is placed. The Customer Account API isn’t supported.

When you’re ready to launch, point your storefront at a Shopify store and add that store’s public Storefront API token. If you don’t have a Shopify store yet, start a Shopify free trial to create one.

Read the mock.shop developer documentation for setup and migration details.
