Well folks, it’s been a long year but we’ve made it. And while we might like to say that we stuck to our resolutions and are completely prepared for the gift-giving holidays, most of us are fighting lines to scramble everything together. So, we’ve got the perfect solution for you!
Our answer: buy local at Flora Forage. Yes, yes it’s a florist shop. However, like many Asheville businesses, Flora offers so much more than just flower arrangements and wreaths.
First of all, they have a coffee bar. 
This is a big deal for us because it draws us back multiple times a week. 
Second, they have a plethora of options for last-minute gifts. Check it out:
- locally handcrafted artwork and jewelry
- luxury natural skin-care items
- DIY kits to make all sorts of things
- house plants (air purifying and easy to not kill)
- terrariums (even make-your-own)
- classes on a variety of subjects from herbal healing to botanical illustration
- A variety of flower related objects to incorporate beauty into life
- and as Jess says,”They also have turtle shells!”
Check Flora out for all your last minute gifts or go for yourself! Don’t forget to treat yourself this holiday too! If you want to treat Jess she wants this:
