Buying locally helps everyone. “We think gifts should be locally sourced whenever possible,” says Megan Kirby. She and Celia Naranjo founded Asheville Goods, which sells themed gift boxes of edibles that offer a taste of what makes Asheville so special.
The Pisgah View Box contains six ready-to-eat items, such as Roots and Branches crackers, and spicy Appalachian okra from Green River Picklers. Try the box with Asheville classics like items from 12 Bones and Hickory Nut Gap, or the one that will satisfy a sweet tooth. Browse online and order early for the holiday season.
Customers placing larger orders, such as those for corporate events, can customize their gift boxes. Asheville Goods will ship anywhere in the United States. Pick up and local delivery options are available. Also, check out their gift boxes sold at the Chamber of Commerce Shop.
Each box includes a vintage reproduction Asheville postcard and “Meet the Makers” brochure. “We provide another market for local businesses to get their product out there,” says Celia. Order a gift box today and invest in our unique culture.
