Looking for some great gift ideas that work not just at the holidays but all year long? Want to support independently-owned businesses? Interested in delicious gift ideas for everyone on your list (from co-workers to mother-in-laws)?
Look no further. We got you covered.

First up, try Sweet Lydia's. Sweet Lydia’s "specializes in that childhood summer favorite: marshmallow! All marshmallows are made from scratch in small batches with delicious ingredients like freshly pureed raspberries and pure Madagascar bourbon vanilla extract. This airy confection gets wrapped around salty pretzel rods and sandwiched between graham crackers or sugar cookies before being completely coated in chocolate." She offers individual gifts, corporate gift baskets, and everything in between.

Next up, try Clark and Scribe. Clark and Scribe specialize in home cooking, with food ranging from peanut brittle to specialty jellies and jams (think Mulled Apple Cider jam and Ginger jelly). They also sell individual pies and other baked goods. For more information, shoot chef Carlynn an email.
