Our
Vision
What started out as an idea between friends over a glass
of wine has culminated into a small and innovative business. Judith
Holtebrinck, a graphic designer, photographer and owner of Lookaround
Design and Adrianne Moor, owner of the renowned Essential Deli have
a vision. A vision to surprise you and your clients with a fine
selection of some of the best local made product New Zealand has
to offer.
Buy
NZ Made
As owners of small businesses ourselves, we have made the
decision to support New Zealand businesses and for this reason ALL
our gifts are 100% New Zealand made. Yes, that means our range of
gift boxes showcase the best of New Zealand’s Food and Wine,
as well as Ceramic and Print Design. Unique products that you can’t
find in any old supermarket.
Working
with your Community
We give you the opportunity to do something really different. Give
a gift that keeps on giving by planting fruit trees in your community.
Judith has been working together with Auckland City Council and
“The Mt Eden Village People” on a project to plant fruit
trees on the grass verges. Passionate about home grown food and
making healthy food accessible for everyone, the shared vision of
picking your lemons from a tree in your street or having an plum
tree next to the play ground, has been at the core of this project.
Working
towards Zero Waste
We have chosen cartons made in New Zealand with recycled
content. The cartons can be reused or recycled.Together with a local
group called The Village People, we have been working towards zero
waste in our Mt Eden Village community since 2004.

And
finally,
a percentage of each sale goes to support The
Great Drain Game, an environmental education initiative
for schools run by the ARC. |
