Boxes of Joy: Dawn's Faves

What would you find if you went to Dawn's and snuck into her pantry? These are the products that she relies on when entertaining guests or just a regular weeknight meal. 

Rancho Meladuco dates: Founded in 2015 by a mom of three who after gifting her delicious dates to friends, was convinced to become a full fledged date farmer. These are the softest, juiciest dates around.

Algae Cooking Club oil: You may feel skeptical but trust me on this, once you cook with algae oil you will wonder how you lived without it. It has the highest smoke point of any oil, loaded with heart healthy Omega-9's and NO, does not taste even a little bit like algae. It is neutral and versatile and you will thank me.

Kajiha Incense: I took an ornament making class with Sonoko in her Industry City studio and fell in love with her work. I am so excited to be carrying her lovely incense (and dried floral bouquets and candles). The quality is outstanding and the scents subtly fill the room without being overpowering. (woman owned too!)

Dailey & Co Pickled Carrots:  grown and pickled in the Hudson Valley in small batches, these carrots are perfectly zingy and tender but crunchy. A surprise addition to a cheese board or the perfect briny snack (you guessed it...woman owned)
