My guess is you’ve contemplated starting your holiday shopping already. Did you know that the Adirondack Council has a selection of unique, environmentally-conscious Adirondack gifts for sale at our on-line shop?
All the gift items we offer have a direct connection to the woods, waters and people of the Adirondack Park. Each of these gifts can conjure fond memories of summer days by a lake, a favorite hiking or paddling excursion or a romantic holiday at a cozy B&B. Every purchase will help protect the Park’s health and wild beauty.
The Adirondack Council promotes the work of Adirondack artists, artisans, authors, and crafters by offering local food items and handmade soaps. Other gifts include toys, games, books, local jewelry, and apparel.
Remember this holiday season, and always, buying local reduces transportation costs, fuel consumption and air pollution. And buying Adirondack helps to protect the most beautiful place in the world.
Here is just a sampling of what we offer. Please check out our shop for many more gifts for your holiday shopping needs. Also, if you spend $75 or more, you’ll get a free 2015 Forever Wild Calendar!
