Jessica Foster Confections
Who doesn’t love being gifted some chocolate treats? One of our favorite gourmet chocolatiers, Jessica Foster Confections has your sweet tooth covered! Not only are her treats delicious, her presentation is eye candy!
Raised on California’s central coast, Jessica has always appreciated the honesty of artisanal foods, the purity of ingredients and the simple process of creating a product by hand from start to finish. She began experimenting with chocolate in 2001, making a few truffles laced with local delicacies as gifts and launched Jessica Foster Confections in September 2003.
Westerlay Orchids
Company founder Joop “Joe” Overgaag had been a greenhouse farmer in the Netherlands before immigrating to Carpinteria, California (along with his wife and four children) in 1978. Joop built his first greenhouses by hand, salvaging oil pipes from the local industry for the frames. In 2009, Joop handed the reins of Westerlay Orchids company to Toine and a second generation began to leave it’s mark.
Giving flowers is a wonderful idea for any time of year! If you haven’t been there yet make it a date to visit their farm!
