Chai for Community: This organic chai is lovingly blended just across the bridge from our Deer Isle home in Downeast Maine by ChaiWallahs of Maine, a woman-owned company that has been bringing people together around warm mugs since 2009. Leigh and Ruthie created their unique blend of organically sourced, high-quality spices and tea to share the mindful ritual of chai-making with their community. The slow cooking process offers a moment to pause, be present, and connect with those around you. Add milk and honey, and enjoy! (Assam Black Tea Chai. 3 oz.)

Caramels for the Climate: These slow-crafted caramels come from Virgo Moon in Mechanic Falls, Maine, where they’re made by hand with local Maine honey, butter, and sea salt in celebration of our local food system. Virgo Moon also donates a percentage of every sale to Maine Needs, striving to build a community where everyone helps and no one goes without. (Maine Sea Salt & Honey Caramels. 1.75 oz.)

Maine artisans Ceramic Mug: Your mug comes from one of two Maine pottery studios we love: Random Pottery in Brooklin, where Lynn Curran creates functional art inspired by Maine's natural beauty, or Roseline Pottery, where each piece is wheel-thrown with careful attention to form and function. More than just a vessel, these mugs hold the warmth of community and craft in every sip. (Handcrafted ceramic mug. 12 oz.)
