The market at Always Never Done features local honey, kombucha, grab-and-go charcuterie boxes, cold-brew coffee cans, and more.
The Gift That Keeps On Giving BY COURTNEY MENGEL
We make choices every day of our lives. Oftentimes, our choices impact others. When a person chooses to buy an item from a small, locally owned business, that one transaction can make a significant difference … for the better. It’s no surprise that the busiest time of the year to go shopping is the month before Christmas. For some people, Christmas shopping is the bane of their existence. On the other hand, other people enjoy thinking about what they plan to buy for each person on their list - a gift catered to one person. Giving gifts is not a strong suit for everyone, which is why so many Christmas cards have a pocket designated for gift cards. Christmas 6

shopping doesn’t have to be challenging, so why not get someone something that’s one of a kind and will last for many years? Always Never Done (AND) is a locally owned business in Landisville that sells upcycled, repurposed, and antique furniture and home décor. Amy Geib opened the shop about six and a half years ago. After graduating from high school, Geib went to art school, but dropped out, and then went into the medical field. Her creativity didn’t stop, though. If anything, it kept growing. When she worked as an X-ray technician, Geib maintained the AND blog, where she posted about her repurposed furniture and home décor projects. After the blog took off, Geib had to choose between keeping her job as an X-ray technician or going full time with

AND. She chose the latter. East Hempfield residents Lisa Hofmann and Michelle Zachery joined the business this past spring. There are many reasons to repurpose and upcycle furniture and home décor. Doing so helps the environment, gives the item a new style, saves money, preserves value, and reuses high-quality items. “Why trash a perfectly good piece of furniture that may not exactly look the way you want it when you can completely transform it with a little bit of paint and effort?” asked Hofmann. Over 40 vendors from Lancaster County sell their products at AND. “We really love our vendors,” said Zachery. “We are a true collection of local. This is a small, community-based business, and it’s something that’s different that you can’t get anywhere else.” AND also features a market where people can purchase local honey, kombucha, grab-and-go charcuterie boxes, cold-brew coffee cans, and more.

“I think the hard thing is that when people say, ‘shop local,’ it sounds so altruistic and amazing,” stated Zachery. “We get that sometimes it’s a little more challenging because it typically means buying something that is a little more expensive, which can be hard. But if people really understood what shopping local is, that by buying that one piece how much more significant that purchase is, not just for that person or that business, but also for that community ... that’s the point.” If there is something in your house that you love but the design is not quite your style, or if you would like to transform a piece into something completely unique, consider continued on page 8 townlively.com

The Benefits of In-Person Shopping
The 2020 holiday season was unlike any other. The COVID-19 pandemic was still affecting daily life across the globe over the final months of 2020, prompting many families and individuals to alter holiday traditions they’d embraced for decades. That included how people shop. Many people avoided in-person holiday shopping in 2020. However, the successful rollout of various COVID-19 vaccines has made in-person shopping safer. That’s good news for local businesses and great news for shoppers, who may have forgotten just how much they can benefit from shopping in person.
shopping, especially for others, is much more convenient than shoppers may realize. When shopping in person, shoppers can get a feel for an item, size it up and even inspect
The 2021 holiday shopping season provides a great opportunity to get out of the house and disconnect from devices.
In-person shopping is convenient.
Much is made of the convenience of online shopping. And it’s undeniable that the ability to shop at all hours of the day and night is convenient. However, in-person 12

its quality before purchasing it. That can save shoppers from that disappointing feeling of receiving an item in the mail only to realize
it’s poorly made or oddly sized and therefore unlikely to fit its eventual recipient.
In-person shopping isn’t all about shipping. Shipping speed is a sig-
nificant factor for online shoppers, which may affect just which gift they give come the holiday season. According to a Dotcom report titled “How Fast Delivery and Quality Packaging Drives Customer Loyalty,” 87 percent of shoppers surveyed indicated shipping was a key factor when deciding whether to shop with an e-commerce brand again. That’s an important consideration, as shoppers may be more inclined to buy an item from a retailer simply because of their shipping speed capabilities and not because of the quality of the item and whether or not it’s what they want to give to their loved one. Shopping in person removes townlively.com
shipping from the equation, ensuring gift-givers will give a gift they truly want to give and not just the one that will arrive on time.
In-person shopping allows for more accessible browsing. Within minutes of entering a

store and walking around, shoppers may see a handful of gifts that will ultimately be great for various people on their lists, even if they had no idea what to get prior to entering. That ability to browse is more difficult when shopping online, especially when buying from online retailers with massive inventories of a range of products. Such sites often require visitors to pick a category to streamline their searches. That’s not always easy or enjoyable for shoppers who cherish the opportunity to uncover hidden gems or more unique gifts that aren’t available all over the internet.

In-person shopping gets shoppers out of the house. Since the onset of the pandemic, people
have spent more time than ever within the confines of their homes. The 2021 holiday shopping season provides a great opportunity to get out of the house and disconnect from devices. Shoppers can even do so alongside friends and family members they weren’t able to see last holiday season.

MAKING MEMORIES Experiential gift ideas BY WENDY ROYAL
Shopping locally for Christmas gifts is always a great way to support small businesses and find unique items for the special people in your life. With ongoing supply chain woes affecting our ability to receive orders on time, now more than ever, shopping local just makes good sense. One gift-giving trend that is growing in popularity is giving experiential gifts. When a friend or family member receives an experience as a gift, they will have memories that will last well beyond Christmas day. Here are a few ideas of Lancaster County businesses that offer experiential gifts. COOKING CLASSES
At Zest! on Main Street in Lititz, you'll find gourmet food and spices as well as a nice variety of kitchen gadgets for the cook in your life. For those who want to improve their cooking skills or just learn some new dishes, Zest! Cooking School on Erbs Quarry Rd., Lititz, provides culinary classes for adults and kids. Their offerings include everything from building a charcuterie board to making an elegant Christmas dinner. Reserve a spot for you and the person receiving the gift and learn something new while creating fun memories together. For more information on Zest! Cooking School visit zestchef.com/cooking-classes
HORSEBACK RIDING
The Ironstone Ranch at Stone Gables Estate sits on 275 picturesque acres in Elizabethtown. Experienced equestrian guides take riders on a one-hour tour of the amazing property. In addition to the lovely countryside, you'll pass by The Star Barn, ride through a restored 1844 covered bridge, and cross the original railroad bed that carried Abraham Lincoln's funeral train in 1865. Gift certificates can be purchased online at stonegablesestate.com/horseback-riding.

OUTDOOR ADVENTURES
If there is a child on your Christmas list, a gift card to Refreshing Mountain's Adventure Center in Stevens would be a spectacular present to find under the tree. Adventures include zip lines, aerial obstacle courses, a giant swing, a petting zoo, escape rooms, a wildlife center, and more. Refreshing Mountain also offers private horseback-riding lessons from a CHA-certified horseriding instructor. For more information and to purchase a gift card, visit refreshingmountain. com.
HOT AIR BALLOON RIDES
There is nothing like the view of the countryside from a hot air balloon. The United States Hot Air Balloon Team offers this bucket-list adventure from the property of Village Inn & Suites in Bird-In-Hand. They also have launch sites in Chester and Bucks counties. You can book a shared ride or a private balloon ride just for you and that special someone. Book your ride online at www.ushotairballoon.com.

HANDS-ON STEM
Another experiential gift idea for kids is a day at the Lancaster Science Factory on New Holland Ave., Lancaster. This interactive science center is geared towards children pre-K to 8th grade and their parents. Single admission fees are very affordable. The gift of a family membership is a great idea for grandparents who would rather see their grandchildren experiencing hands-on fun that could lead them to a career in technology rather than buying them the latest tech gadget.

Restaurants and movie theaters have been hit hard by the pandemic. Why not buy a gift card to a Penn Cinema in Lititz and a restaurant like Mick's or Fiorentino's nearby? Penn Cinema's leather reclining seats are roomy, with rows nicely spaced apart. Penn Cinema also boasts the only IMAX in the area. Movie and ticket information can be found at penncinema.com. Mick's All-American Pub is attached to Penn Cinema's IMAX, making it a convenient and tasty choice for dinner and a movie. Mick's features American pub fare along with a bar and plenty of screens to catch the game. Check out Mick's menu at micksallamericanpub.com. Fiorentino's Italian Restaurant & Bar is located just down the road from the movie theater at the Lancaster Airport. Fiorentino's features three dining rooms in addition to outdoor seating at The Flight Deck. Known for delicious made-from-scratch Italian dishes, Fiorentino's is a great dinner and movie option.
