About

 

  • Wild Persimmon Gifts is a boutique seasoning and gift shop providing unique finds, kitchen accessories, custom gift boxes or baskets and features our signature savory blend: Herbed Salt No. 1. 

     

  • How Did We Get Started? Creating delicious giftable food has always been a hobby of mine. I absolutely love to create beautifully wrap these gifts for my friends and family. More recently, I began to get requests for my creations for others to give as gifts. With encouragement from close friends and family, I decided to launch my business in 2021. I've been selling my products in locally-owned retail shops, supplying caterers, as well as filling direct-to-customer orders in the greater Chattanooga area.

 

  • Why Wild Persimmon? Just before I started the business, my husband and I purchased a piece of property, where I discovered several wild persimmon trees. I loved eating the tiny, sweet, unusual fruit off of trees on my family farm when I was young, and that became my inspiration. I created my logo and business name, and Wild Persimmon Gifts was born! 

 

  • What Do You Sell? Herbed Salt No. 1 is my flagship seasoning and is a blend of herbs and seasonings that will make your mouth want more! Adding depth of flavor without adding heat makes this the perfect addition to almost any savory recipe, and makes it a hit with kids. Several customers have told me that their kids never ate vegetables willingly until they started using Herbed Salt No. 1 at mealtime. Now they eat anything! I also create specialty gift baskets for corporate, office, or teacher gifts, as well as curate beautiful and unusual salt pots, jars, seasoning grinders and shakers. We will be adding more of these options to our website soon. 

 

  • Will You Make More Blends? We plan to add more savory and sweet seasoning blends to our collection as we complete the testing for each flavor. If you have any ideas for a blend you'd like to see us carry, send us a message! 

 

  • How Do I Place a Custom or Gift Basket Order? Message us through the contact us page, social media, email or our phone number! We love to fill your special orders! 

    If you have any other questions, I'd love to hear from you! --Heather S., Owner & Creator
