What our business does is create custom gift boxes for our clients. Our mission statement is connecting people with unique gifts coffee and experiences and we also have a coffee shop and bakery. Over time, we've hosted hundreds of artists. We have a gallery wall where we feature local artists. We also have an internship program where we partner with the local high school to bring in high school interns during the school day. We have an agreement with Crime Victim Services for a workforce development program to help those people who would be a good fit and need a job to help work with us in our bakery. And lastly, we strive to purchase from local makers whenever we can.
