Build-Your-Own Boxes
For orders of 20+ boxes, build your own box featuring our For Good collection.
The makers in our community are incredible storytellers — from a coffee roastery on a remote island in Maine to a dry-farmed walnut orchard preserving water in California.
Our For Good collection takes these beloved products and gives them the spotlight they deserve, with names that connect what you're sharing to the impact you're creating. Think Coffee for Community instead of just coffee. Walnuts for the Watershed instead of just walnuts.
Each product is a conversation starter, a values statement, and a delicious way to show what matters to you.
Every box includes:
