Lancaster Gift Box
A Love Story
A love between cofounders, Gabriel and Diana. A love for local makers and a thriving local economy. And most of all, a love for you — our incredible customers — who make this journey possible.
Origin Story
Circa 2019
Diana, a native of Lancaster County, and Gabriel, from New York City, met at the Phoenicia Flea Market in 2019, where Diana sold her jams & chutneys and Gabriel worked with a Kombucha company.
Their shared passion for local food, small businesses, and the environment sparked an instant connection. During the pandemic, they moved to Lancaster County, launching Lancaster Local Provisions (now Lancaster Gift Box) in July 2020.
Initially a fresh grocery delivery service, it aimed to support local farmers and build a sustainable local food system. Although now a gift box company, their mission to support local producers and reinvest in the community remains the same.

Mission
Our mission is to build a thriving community of local food producers, farmers, and makers, driving support for our local economy and transforming the way we approach gift giving.
-
Passion
We strive to elevate not only the gifting experience but also the values and principles behind it.
We believe that supporting local businesses isn't just about transactions; it's about forging genuine connections between consumers and the products they purchase.
Rooted in a vision of business that extends beyond profit, we're here to demonstrate the power of intentional, authentic, and sustainable business practices.
-
Reciprocity & Community
We believe in protecting the land that sustains us. That’s why we donate 1% of our annual sales to Lancaster Farmland Trust to help preserve Lancaster County’s rich farming heritage.

Generosity
Generosity is the driving force behind everything we do. When you give first, you create meaningful connections, build trust, and open the door to incredible opportunities.
And the best part? Being generous doesn’t just benefit others; it feels deeply rewarding for you as well. It’s a powerful way to strengthen relationships, build loyalty, and create lasting, positive change.
