A new tradition this holiday >>
Actually, our gift guide isn’t so serious after all. We wanted to have a little fun and share a few of our favorite gift ideas from our Brooklyn and Vermont roots, to other gifts that are simply fun and cool.
1. Let’s start with something a little crazy! Count down to 2021 with the appropriately named ‘Crazy Hours’ watch by Franck Muller.
Both extravagant and functional, this watch features a “wonderful mechanical movement that allows the hour hand to cleverly jump from one hour to the next in the correct order.” We love the inventive and stylish design, even if Santa may not be delivering it to us this year ..

2. Indulge your friends, or yourself, with sweets from Vermont. These are two of our favorites that get us through those long harvest days: Lake Champlain Chocolates and Mother Myrricks.
Great for gifting a nice holiday assortment, or we enjoy the chocolate bars and buttercrunch all year round!

3. Handcrafted in Vermont for over 150 years, Green Mountain Flannel is the source for all things flannel.
We like their shirts for their unparalleled quality and warmth, but you can also find flannel lounge pants, throws, and yes – even flannel capes!

4. Sustainable and safe, these are also the most fashionable electrical scooters to get around.
Unagi bikes are known for being light, sleek, portable, and extremely functional. Zoom zoom.

5. It’s been around for over a decade, but it’s still one of the best, Roberta’s Pizza in Bushwick, the OG location just steps away from the Serious Dirt studio.
Refuel in the whimsical outdoor tiki garden, or order their infamous bee sting pizza to-go.

6. One of the best ideas all year long, for everyone on your list, gift the richness of Serious Dirt CBD.
Need an immediate relax? Try gifting ‘Make Friends,’ our multi-pack of hemp pre-rolls. Looking for more potent relief? Our ‘Serious Drops’ can help with everything from pain & inflammation to stress and sleeplessness. Also safe for your pets to help provide joint relief or reduce anxiety – just message us for dosage guidelines. Order online or stop by our studio in Bushwick to see how we do it.

7. Another great all-year round gift idea, and still made in Dorset, Vermont – just down the road from where we dry our hemp in our high tunnels – JK Adams has every cutting, carving and serving board you can imagine.
We are most fond of the cheese boards with grooves specially designed to hold crackers, elevating your ordinary cheese plate, as well as the pastry board, with measurement guides and a resting groove for your rolling pin on the board making that perfect pie or tart crust super easy.

8. Looking for something less material to gift? Give good health! One of our earliest collaborators, Ngo Okafur & Iconoclast Fitness, has several gifts to elevate your health to a new level.
28 Days Greater is a virtual program to dramatically transform you using no-nonsense advice, demonstration videos, nutrition options and best of all, motivational quotes.
Back at his fitness studio in Flatiron, the Infrared Sauna experience, which has been known to aid in overall health in well-being, is great for fitness enthusiasts and those just needing a little relax time. Several different options available from 30 minute sessions through 10-pack sessions.

9. Bring the outside in and gift an easy, but fun, DIY project with the Manscapers’ Succulent Bowl Kit.
From our friends over in Williamsburg, Brooklyn (and stars of Bravo’s Backyard Envy), this soup-to-nuts kit includes everything you need to make a stunning, artisanal project!

10. The last item on our list may be one of the hardest to get: the Bushwick Birkin!
These infamous bags are designed by local talent Telfar Clemens, a CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund winner who is based in Bushwick, Brooklyn. All bags are vegan, bear the coveted Telfar logo. and often sell out in minutes when released on their website. Sign up for email updates and be the first online to get yours.
