The Garden’s Kiosk, located in Palm Circle, is full of handmade items created by small businesses making it the perfect place to find stocking stuffers and gift sets that are sure to delight anyone on your holiday shopping list. Most items are hand-crafted in small batches and made from non-toxic, all-natural ingredients. Read more information about a few of the small businesses we sourced our inventory from this year before purchasing in-person. And from now until December 24, the Kiosk will be having a Holiday Sale – all merchandise is 15% off! So if you’ve been eyeing something at the Kiosk for someone on your holiday list (or for yourself), now is the best time to buy.

Small businesses at the Kiosk:

  • Bee Bella specializes in creating lip balm made from high-end, fair-trade ingredients, but that doesn’t mean they’re not focused on quality too. They believe that all skin care should be “grounded in clinical research and free from unnecessary artificial chemicals.” Bee Bella sourced the beeswax locally in their home state of Wisconsin and their tubes are made from sustainably sourced bamboo and 100% recycled plastic. These lip balms for sale at the Kiosk are hydrating and smell amazing making them the perfect addition to any gift.

  • Sunny Bunny’s Garden soap is created with all-natural and vegan ingredients that are sure to make your skin look and feel it’s best. Their fragrances are made from natural oils that are phthalate-free and FDA certified for cosmetic and skincare use. These small soaps make the perfect gift for anyone who loves clean beauty products. We currently have several scents available at the Kiosk along with a variety of their all natural lip balms.

  • Soulistic Roots creates handmade and holistic bath and body products that are all-natural, enviornmentally friendly and cruelty free. Combining aromatherapy and medicinal plants, Soulistic Roots creates natural alternatives that you can trust. You can find their Travel Gift Set on sale at the Kiosk, which consists of two bath soaks, a relaxing pillow mist and headache relief roller.

  • Wax Apothecary candles are handmade in a dedicated studio located Idyllwild. They are made of plant-based wax, all cotton wicks and essential oils. Each candle is infused with natural oils and dried botanicals to creat authentic frangrances. Use as aromatherapy, light therapy or simply as a home frangrance. We currently have several frangrances available at the Kiosk.

  • BeeSip Native Bees of the Western United States Cards were created by National Geographic explorer and conservation photographer, Krystle Hickman. This is the perfect gift for the curious explorer or insect admirer in your life who may want something more enriching than soaps or lip balms. Each set contains 94 cards that cover 40 different species of bees native to the Western United States with detailed photography. You’ll learn more about declining species and the important role that bees play in our ecosystem. The deck of cards come in a beautiful green box, the only thing missing is a bow!

We only featured 5 small businesses this week but there are plenty of more to explore in person. So make sure to stop by the Kiosk during your next visit.
