Holiday Gift Box Marketing Kit 2023


“It’s beginning to look a lot like… IdaHoHoHo Preferred Holiday Gift Box Season!

Now in its fifth year, our beloved Idaho-themed gift box is back, featuring a delightful assortment of ag-artisan food and personal care products sourced from the hardworking hands of Idaho farmers, ranchers, and crafters. The Idaho Preferred Ag-Artisan Holiday Gift Box brings together the very best of Idaho’s agriculture-based food and crafted products, offering a one-of-a-kind agricultural sampler experience.

This year, we’re thrilled to offer two distinct gift box collections, each featuring products that have been grown, raised, or meticulously crafted right here in our Gem State. With the contributions of more than 25 Idaho farmers and food crafters from across the state, these boxes are a true testament to Idaho’s agricultural excellence.

These unique gift boxes will be available by the first week of December, just in time to spread the holiday cheer. This initiative is not-for-profit and is dedicated to supporting our producers and local food economies from the ground up.

THANK YOU for helping to raise awareness of this important and impactful initiative! Your help in spreading the word is invaluable. So, how can you help? Below, you’ll find all the resources you need to assist us in promoting these distinctive Idaho Preferred Holiday Gift Box collections and further spotlight Idaho’s exceptional ag-artisan producers. From press releases to social media templates/ captions, everything is prepared and ready to go.

Let’s make this holiday season a celebration of Idaho’s agricultural abundance together!
