The holidays are nearly upon us and we’re psyched to bring you Part I of our annual holiday gift guide featuring gifts from our customers, vendors, and other foodies we love. Keep reading for a round-up of the best edible and non-edible gifts this winter!
Treat a sweet person in your life to a subscription to Alicia Kennedy’s newsletter, From the Desk of Alicia Kennedy. How does it work? On Mondays, Alicia sends out an essay to anyone and everyone who wants it—for free—about food culture, politics, and media. On Wednesdays, she sends out a discussion thread on Monday’s topic, but this piece only makes it to paid subscribers. Paid subscribers will also receive Friday’s newsletter—an interview with people involved in the food industry. Subscribe today for the full experience!
Tired of cooking? Treat your sweetie to an at-home date with all-vegan takeout from Bushwick gem Hartbreakers. Who says chowing down on fast/casual fare in the comfort of your home can’t be sexy? Peruse the menu and be prepared to drool!
Wanna spread the love? Make a donation in your giftee’s name to The Okra Project, “a collective that seeks to address the global crisis faced by Black Trans people by bringing home cooked, healthy, and culturally specific meals and resources to Black Trans People wherever we can reach them.” Donate today!
Dry Goods Refillery, a “BYOC, zero waste refill shop selling bulk grocery items and plastic-free products,” is offering an assortment of holiday gift boxes. Choose between the Large Candy Bento Gift Box, the Small Candy Bento Gift Box, the DGR Baking Duo Gift Box, or customize your own. They also offer online gift cards!
Looking for a great gift for your newly vegan friend who’s still adjusting to a dairy-free life? Try these Italian Cheese Candles from East Fork, which they can enjoy guilt-free! Plus, they’ll last a lot longer than a block of the real thing ever would. Order today!
Got a bud who loves to drink? Shaker & Spoon Cocktail Club offers a variety of options for Cocktail Set Gift Subscriptions. Give your friend one month, three months, six months, or twelve months of alcohol-fueled joy. Cheers!
If your loved ones don’t drink—or do but also love tea and sparkling water—we suggest gifting them a Sound Sparkling Tea Sampler. These beverages are refreshing, delicious, and aesthetically pleasing—what more could you ask for? Order today!
And, lastly, don’t forget to wrap your gifts sustainably! Check out this nifty little diagram of “Eco Gift Wrapping Ideas” courtesy of Dry Goods Refillery for inspiration.
