Meet The New Owner
Hello, Friends!
I’ve Always Found Immense Joy In Giving A Thoughtful Gift And Seeing Someone's Face Light Up. There's Something Incredibly Special About That Moment When A Gift, Chosen With Love, Makes Someone Feel Truly Appreciated. I Get This Love For Giving From My Mom. Growing Up, She Always Went Above And Beyond To Make Sure That My Siblings And I Had Magical Birthdays, Christmases, And Special Occasions. Her Passion For Making Others Feel Cherished Has Been Passed Down To Both My Sister And Me.
From A Young Age, I Would Count Down The Days To Upcoming Craft Shows & Markets. I Love The Excitement I Feel When Browsing Through All The Booths, Meeting New People, And Finding Unique Gifts That Would Make My Loved One’s Smile.
Like Many Maritimers, I Ventured Out West And Spent Nearly 13 Years In The Stunning Okanagan Valley In Kelowna, BC. Despite The Breathtaking Landscapes And New Experiences, The Maritimes Always Held A Special Place In My Heart. There’s Nothing Like The Kind, Welcoming Spirit Of The People In The Maritimes And The Scent Of Salt Air. During My Visits Home, I Would Stock Up On My Favorite Local Goods To Take Back With Me, Carrying A Piece Of Home Every Time I Would Leave. As A Proud Maritimer, I Loved Sharing Our Local Treasures With Friends On The West Coast. It Has Been Almost A Decade Since I Relocated Back To The Maritimes, And I Count My Blessings Every Day.
In The Summer Of 2023, When I Saw That The Maritime Box Was Up For Sale, It Felt Like Fate. It Was The Perfect Opportunity To Combine My Love For Giving, My Passion For Local Products, Supporting & Working With The Talented Artisans Of The Maritimes And To And Share The Unique Treasures Of Our Region With The World. I'm A Huge Advocate Of Supporting People’s Dreams, Paying It Forward, And Discovering New Maritime Businesses. The Atlantic Maritime Provinces Are Rich In Culture And Talent, And I’m Thrilled To Be A Part Of Sharing That With Others.
Friends, I Have Some BIG Plans For The Maritime Box, And I’m So Excited For You To Be Part Of The Community We’re Building Together.
Selena
Big Hugs
