For the well-shaven dad (or the one who needs to be)

The hand carved wood razor, and brush set ($160.00) from Jan Close is the perfect gift for the stylish and well-shaven man in your life! We also carry an array of shaving products (price varies) from Balsam Springs Soaps including beard balm for the dad who doesn’t shave!

For the outdoor dad
Does your dad spend a lot of time outside? If it is out in the garage working on cars, on the boat fishing, in the shed woodworking, or just sitting on the porch watching the world go by no dad should be “bugged.” This is why these leather fly swatters (small-$6, large-$10) by Andrew Yoder are perfect for the outdoorsy dad!

For the dad who is still a big kid at heart
As the saying goes, “Boys don’t grow up, their toys just get bigger and more expensive.” So if you have a big kid in our life, then you should consider this handmade tractor trailer ($150.00) made lovingly by R&B Woodworks. If you’re lucky, maybe your dad will let you play with the truck too.

For the dad who needs his morning pick-up
Trust me, parenting is tough! So I am sure that your dad could use this over-sized coffee mug ($20.00) by Anne Burnham Pottery. This mug will be his go to in the morning to get him that jolt of java that he is jonesing for! And after a hard day, don’t worry dad-if you slip a little whiskey in there, your secret’s safe with us!

How about a homegrown hero ribeye ($16.87 per pound) from Tucker’s Black Angus Ranch and some steak sauce ($6.50) from Tri-Town Packing? Let dad be master and commander of his domain and make himself a mouthwatering meal. Hopefully, he’ll share with you!
