Mother’s Day is just around the corner. If you are looking for a uniquely local present, visit one of our Uniquely Local partners for an unforgettable gift to remind Mom just how special she is!
Our plant nursery, farms and landscaping partners have an array of unforgettable gifts that keeps giving season after season. From mixed containers and spectacular hanging baskets to perennials, shrubs, trees, mixed herb pots for the culinary lover—and even locally made pottery and gift certificates.

For the foodie in your life, May 10th typically marks the last spring frost date in Haywood County. This is a great time to plant your herb, vegetable and flower gardens. Vegetable and herb starts can be purchased at local nurseries, farmer and tailgate markets along with shrubs, flowers and perennials.
Our Uniquely Local-Artisan Produced partners, like Copper Pot & Wooden Spoon, offer individual jars of jams, jellies, savory spreads and artisan pickled products. Chef Jessica DeMarco has created a wonderful selection of gift boxes and even offers a Seasonal Pantry membership (half-year or year long) that can be picked up in person or shipped to your loved ones far away.
Buy Haywood specialty retail partners, like Mountain Favors, will create a beautifully packed gift box for you. You walk in with an idea and leave with a spectacular surprise that is sure to WOW. Bennington carefully curates the inventory at Mountain Favors to include only locally made items, for a sneak peak CLICK HERE to visit our Youtube Channel for a video tour if Mountain Favors.
