Holiday Gift Guide!
Happy Holidays from Luke’s Local! ‘Tis the season, and we assembled a list of gifts that are perfect to give to loved ones or bring to a holiday party this season!
It’s a classic adage that you should never show up to someone’s house empty-handed, so what better gift to bring than the one you can drink too? The Cleto Chiarli Lambruscos are a fantastic and unique alternative to the classic red, but the brightness from the bubbles make them feel like more of a celebration!
A more modern twist to gifting wine is canned wine. West + Wilder sells 3 packs of their canned wine: choose white or rosé, sparkling or not, and everyone can mix and match with the perfect serving! They’re local to northern California and donate to 1% for the Planet to preserve native plants and wild areas. Recycle your empties at the end of the night, and know that your party helped save the world!
Canned cocktails are also making a big push, and are another option for those who like drinks with a stronger kick. Golden Rule’s margaritas may be in the cutest lil can you’ve ever seen, but it certainly packs a punch! Salt Point offers canned Moscow Mules and Greyhounds as well; all the ease of a cocktail, but none of the work.
Spirits aside, cards and flowers are heartfelt gifts that are easy to pick up in a pinch. Handmade seasonal floral arrangements brighten up any room and will definitely bring a smile to whoever receives them. (Check out our previous blog post on Blue House Farm for some background at one of our vendors!) The cards and floral arrangements at Luke’s Local are locally sourced from small businesses, so you can feel good knowing you’re gifting something extra special.
If all else fails, gift cards are another wonderful last-minute idea that anyone will appreciate! A Luke’s Local gift card is perfect for those who shop in-store regularly, or for those who are interested in diving into the world of locally sourced and organic products.
We wish you all a happy and safe holiday season!
