Reasons to gift: Winter 2024

The darkest months of the year are often when we need the most motivation — little things that put a spring in our step and a smile on our face.

It’s a great time to get people excited about a fresh start, with thoughtful gifts that boost energy and productivity. We can think of more than a few reasons to get gifting this winter, so take a look and get ready to raise some smiles.

Cheese Lover’s Day: January 20

Everybody say cheese! Celebrate it in all its forms, both dairy and plant-based, with a whole day set aside to explore the myriad flavors, textures and savory accompaniments that make cheese such a beloved snack. We like ours in an oozy-but-crispy toasted sandwich, with pickles and kimchi piled high.
