Brimming with wellness essentials, our Spring 2024 Acre75 Gathered box was designed to uplift both body and soul, carrying our subscribers through the last days of winter and creating a ton of excitement for spring!
What's more, this box commemorated a significant milestone—our 20th season of shipping Acre75 Gathered boxes! Throughout these past 20 seasons, we've had the privilege of supporting over 100 Canadian small town businesses, injecting over three quarters of a million dollars back into local economies across the country!
Reaching this milestone is a testament to our steadfast dedication to championing small town businesses and creating connections through every Acre75 Gathered box.
One of our most loyal Acre75 Gathered subscribers said this about her Acre75 Gathered boxes: "Between CBC's "Still Standing" and your beautiful town descriptions in your Acre75 Gathered boxes, I have been compiling a 'wish list' of small towns my husband and I plan to visit this year. Thank you so much for what you do."
Here's to the next 20 seasons of connecting you to beautiful Canadian small towns and the incredible businesses flourishing within them!
