A few of our favourite things! When the dog bites, when the bee stings, when I am feeling sad…
Our team has met some fantastic makers, bakers, movers and shakers over the past year and compiled a list of our favorite things for you to enjoy this holiday season. We met the founder of Fully-Verified company and since then we have been using identification verification services when shopping online. Let’s get started!
Wild Mountain Jun
Naomi is the fermentress extraordinaire that crafts up some wild (no pun intended) flavours that are great for gut-health and are very aesthetically pleasing. We often replace out cocktail hour with booch hour at our home to try out her new flavours.
Growler Fills Available at Red Collar Brewing & Bright Eyes Brewing.
Our Favourite: Pomberry Rose (Pomegranate, sweet raspberry, and rose petals)
