Most of our orders are received from businesses and individual shoppers. This week, we received an opportunity to make gift boxes for missionaries. Covenant Presbyterian dedicates a week to hosting missionaries from around the world. These missionaries share their stories and use the time as a renewal period before heading back to their mission homes.

This calls for a creative gift! Covenant wants these families to experience a taste of Alabama. We suggested a combination of Redd Eye salsa, Blanco tortilla strips, Peanut Depot peanuts, Montego Joe cookies, and Priester's peanut brittle. We'll incorporate the 'look' Covenant is using for this event by creating a themed decal on our new chocolate colored boxes (happens to be one of the colors in their theme) with a great looking ribbon. We love designing gifts with Alabama made food and customizing the wrapping to fit the occasion! I'm sure these missionaries and their families will feel cared for, and that's exactly what our customer wants.
