For the Foodie
For the friend who’s always in the kitchen cooking up a storm. Check out these curated gifts featuring women-owned businesses.

I recommend a pack of New Glarus Spotted Cow, whose president and co-owner is Deb Carey, the first woman to establish and operate a brewery in the United States. How cool!
Brightland Olive Oil: Not everyone is going to splurge on fancy olive oil for themselves during their weekly supermarket run. That’s what makes this olive oil the perfect gift for the foodie in your life. Aishwarya Iye is the CEO and founder of this California company, and she’s rocking it.
State Spoon Rest: Know someone who has recently moved or just really loves their home state? Gift this hand-sculpted state spoon rest made by Kerry Brooks in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It’s such a cute addition to the kitchen.
