FIRST EVER better box for charity: The 2024 Limited Edition Western NC Artists Gift Box (only 100 available) 🎁

When we launched better made easy, our mission was to leverage the power of gifting to give back in new and exciting ways.

We've teamed up with Anna Bryant Art, the Carlyle Adams Foundation, the Mary Duke Biddle Foundation, & the NC Arts Foundation to bring you the ULTIMATE gift box that gives back and only 100 are available! 🎁

100% of profits from sales for this exclusive box will go to Western NC Artists through the NC Arts Foundation Disaster Relief Fund.

Thanks to the matching donations of the Carlyle Adams Foundation and Mary Duke Biddle Foundation, a total of $75 per box, at minimum, will be donated for each of these gift boxes sold.

Welcome to the Western NC Artists Box—a thoughtfully curated selection of mission-driven products from the heart of Western North Carolina that also features a commissioned work of art from Anna Bryant, an Asheville-based artist. 

Whether you’re gifting it or treating yourself, each product highlights the passion and purpose behind the community-focused brands in this beautiful region.

Inside the Western NC Artists Box, you'll find:

Original-Commissioned Work of Art / Card (5x7) - screen-printed and signed by Anna Bryant, an Asheville-based artist

Hot Chocolate from Asheville-based French Broad Chocolate (fun fact: featured as one of Oprah's Favorite Things this year!) 

Appalachian Mountain Honey from Robbinsville-based Wehrloom Honey

OG Chocolate Covered Saltines from Asheville-based Legally Addictive

"The River" Firelight Candle, a store based in Boone, NC, in a White Matte Ceramic and Bamboo Lid

Asheville-based Sarilla Spiced Apple Sparkling Tea (which is sourced from a regenerative farm in Rwanda!) 

A handwritten note, fulfillment, and a recyclable gift box wrapped in compostable packing tape that matches the art in the box for a truly curated experience.

This box is more than just a collection of local products—it's a taste of the community and values of Western North Carolina.

Enjoy, share, and make a positive impact with your purchase!

Quick disclaimer:

In light of the disaster and slow recovery after the storm, it is possible we may need to switch out a product or two for a comparable item.

If this happens, we'll be sure to reach out to confirm whether you're comfortable with the replacement available or would you prefer a refund. 

Our Commitment to Sustainability:

We’ve done extensive research on the most sustainable and eco-friendly packaging and marketing materials, so you can feel great knowing you truly are giving a ‘better’ gift. 🎁😍🫶
