Nothing brings back memories of simpler times more than a glass bottle of sarsaparilla soda and a stick of rock candy!

While filling your gift bucket, the possibilities are endless! I filled this bucket with sarsaparilla sodas and ginger beer in glass bottles. I added in an assortment of rock candy flavors, caramel brownie bars, cherry candy, chocolate hard candy sticks, peppermint candy and horehound hard candies. With the wide variety and selection of candies and treats in our candy section at Red Hill General Store, you'll have a blast coming up with your own unique combinations to fill your bucket!

Gift Ideas for 2012

We've thought up some gift ideas for you for this holiday season:

Duke Easy Pecan Cracker, this nut cracker would be a great gift when paired in a beautiful basket with a variety of soft shelled nuts.

For the food growing, self sufficient members of your family or group of friends, investing in some home canning supplies as a gift for them will be greatly appreciated and will add to their ability to preserve their hard worked for produce. Also if they do not already own it, the Ball Blue Book is a must have addition to any kitchen used for food preservation.

Gazing Globes make a great gift for the gardener on your gift list. These make a great addition to any flower garden or yard decor.



Stocking Stuffer Ideas:

Know someone with a Keurig? Some K-cups will make a great addition to their stocking so that they have some on hand for that cup of coffee when ever they need it.

Pocket knives are a great stocking stuffer, Red Hill General Store has some great Old Timer Knives to add to your list of stocking stuffers.
