Holiday Shipping & Pickup Schedule: December Cutoffs, Pauses & Last-Minute Digital Gifts

🎄 Holiday Break Dates

We’re officially on holiday from December 21 to January 4.
Orders are still welcome during that time — but a few things will be on pause until we’re back in the kitchen.

📦 Local Pickup Paused

Local pickups close after December 19 and reopen January 4.
If pickup is your go-to, make sure your order is in before then.

Our last pickups will be at Allan Gardens Farmers Market Dec 20th from 10-2pm

🚚 What Will Still Ship

Shipping continues as normal during the break for:

• In-stock
• Regular size
• Regular mix spice blends

If it’s a standard blend in a standard size and shows as in-stock, it will ship as usual.

Easy. ✅

⏸️ What’s on Hold Until January 4

Shipping will be paused from December 20–January 4 for:

• Custom blends
  • salt-free
  • sugar-free
  • extra-garlic
  • extra-spicy
• Large sizes 
  • double size
  • triple size

These need to be made fresh, and we won’t have them with us while we’re away. Orders placed during the break will queue up and ship as soon as we’re back.

🎁 Last-Minute Digital Gifts (No Shipping Required)

Still need a great gift? Two easy, zero-stress options:

• Digital Gift Certificates
  Delivered instantly by email. Perfect last-minute stocking stuffers — no pickup, no shipping, no deadlines.
• Glowup Crowdfunding Campaign
  A great gift for a fan of our spices (or yourself). Support new packaging, new ideas, and future blends. Fully digital — nothing to ship, nothing to pick up.

👉 Both options are available online right now and work even if you’re reading this five minutes before gift time.

📍 Kingston Friends — Read This

We’ll be spending most of the break in Kingston, Ontario.

If you’re local and hoping for a pickup, reach out.
No promises — but it might be possible.

The Bottom Line

If you want:

• 🎁 standard blends → you’re good to go
• 🛠️ custom or big formats → expect January shipping
• 📦 local pickup → order immediately and pickup before December 19
• 💻 last-minute gifts → go digital

Thanks for planning ahead, supporting small batch, and keeping good flavour in your life — even when we’re briefly off the clock.

We’ll be back rested, restocked, and ready to make delicious easy again.
