Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Locally sourced gifts & meals to celebrate the northern Michigan moms in your life.

Mother's Day is quickly approaching, and this year is going to look different from years past. Our families won't be visiting us from downstate, our favorite restaurants will be closed for Mother's Day brunch. While it is easy to focus on all the disappointments of the current situation, we hope to offer some joy in the midst of it!

We have already loved being the bearers of good food and flower surprises to our neighbors, delivering gifts from friends and family who live out of the area. Why not extend the gift-giving spirit as a way to celebrate moms?

We have teamed up with some fantastic local artisans to create a selection of gift offerings to be delivered with our Mother's Day menu. If you live out of the area but your mom, or a mom you'd like to celebrate, lives in northern Michigan, let us help you shower them with love! Mother's Day food purchases will include a $5 discount if this is your first order.

To order a gift, send us an email at melandfellg (at) gmail.com, or sign up for the newsletter on our website. We will then send you the Mother's Day menu, including the pricing for locally sourced gifts. Food & gift items will be delivered on Saturday, May 9. You'll need to have the gift recipient's address and ensure they'll be home (or have a cooler or refrigerator accessible to us for food drop-off). Our delivery area is within a fifteen-mile radius of Empire.

The Mother's Day menu will feature Melanie's amazing Earl Grey Scones, quiche, and more! You can place an order just to receive a meal, or you can add any of the offered gift items to your delivery. The menu will include an option to add-on a wine pairing from Amoritas Vineyard, based in Lake Leelanau.

We are partnering with Grocer's Daughter Chocolates to provide gift boxes and chocolate bars as sweet additions to your delivery. We have sourced beautiful candle collections from In the Stars Candles, and cards from Wander Gather in Cedar. Spring bouquets will be available from our friend Michelle of Leelanau Specialty Cut Flowers.

Are you a local mom who would love to receive the meal delivery as a gift? Send us an email with the email or phone number of someone you love and we can plant some ideas in their head by sharing our Mother's Day menu. Or, simply forward the email onto someone who may need an idea of what to gift you this Mother's Day. Interested in treating yourself to the goods? We highly support that decision.

To all of the moms and mother-figures out there, we celebrate all that you do! We can't wait to bring you some tasty treats on behalf of those who are grateful to you.
