If there ever was a time to give the gift of wellness to your friends and family, this holiday season is it!
Spreading cheer, self-care, and total-body-wellness all while supporting our local Hingham shops and purveyors is the perfect way to help your loved ones stay healthy, happy, and (dare we say?) relaxed during these stressful times.
Taking care of yourself and each other is easy if you know where to look!
We hit the streets seeking out the best health and wellness gifts so you don’t have to. There's sure to be something for everyone on your list, plus we even added a few opportunities to spoil yourself along the way! Our town is bursting with creative, perfectly-curated collections by our local merchants, each supporting the mission of healing and celebrating mind, body, and soul.
As you begin making your list (and checking it twice), take a peek at what our local elves are making in their workshops:
Assembly
24 North Street
Stop by Assembly and pick up a pair of their Royalties Paris socks (available in recycled cotton) for $35.00.
Additionally, you'll want to stop by the shop or call ahead to have a gift box created for your loved ones with Assembly's Curated Gift Boxes! Pictured above is a gift box containing Sky Candle's “Energy,” Salt & Stone all-natural skincare, and Soap Distillery's vegan soaps.
The Bloomy Rind
21 Main Street
Warm up this holiday season with Chef Robert’s daily made-from-scratch selection of soups with the only the finest ingredients! The soup selection at Bloomy Rind will give you the comfort of a great big (virtual) hug when the wind blows through town. Prices will vary. Pictured above: Chef's sweet potato coconut curry bisque.
Chel Bella
66 South Street
Chel Bella offers shoppers a selection of re/done denim, which is sustainable denim created with tried-and-true vintage Levi's fabric. This is the only thing you'll want to change out of your loungewear for! Think well-aged denim with a perfected fit. Prices vary by style.
Doublemint Home
106 North Street
The season of entertainment is upon us, and who better to entertain that ourselves? Treat yourself and a friend to a classic or festive serving piece with Doublemint Home's selection of platters and trays, $10.00 and up. After all, just because our parties have gotten smaller doesn't mean we have to stop celebrating!
fig.a
102 North Street
From fig.a, we cannot recommend the Lunar Mist Organic Hand Sanitizer ($6.00-10.00) enough! Also available online.
In addition, Duxbury Saltworks Organic Bath Salts ($24.00) are a great gift in the spirit of self-care.
Last, but not least, the Esker Dry Brush for Smooth Skin ($19.00) is also available online.
Kindred
292 Main Street
We may not be able to wrap our arms around our friends, but this super-soft, 100% Mohair throw from Kindred’s Natures Collection ($200.00) will feel almost as nice wrapped around your loved ones. Keep them warm this winter with a chunky knit blanket of your choice!
Take your on-the-go hydration game to the next level with these beautiful, reusable straws. Prices vary.
Send messages for healthy living, positive thinking, and the promise of a New Year with this Dr. Fauci doll, Good Vibes ornament, and New Years cards; prices vary.
kloTH
6 Station Street
Get your guy some men’s outerwear from kloTH ($145.00-$350.00): with snow in October and 70-degree weather this November, he’ll love a new layering go-to piece!
A great bag is the perfect punch-up accessory for all the leisurewear we’ve collected in our closets this quarantine! Check out the Claire V. Midi crossbody ($320.00-$330.00) at kloTH.
Mainland
16 Whiting Street
The female-owned and locally-made brand Farm + Sea candles, diffusers, lotions, oils, and room sprays are all available at Mainland.
Ralph’s Hingham Wine Merchant
74 North Street, #1813

The Green Light
35 Station Street
The Green Light Hingham’s Traffic Light Trio is too cute to pass up; prices vary according to size. The Green Light, Crimson Sunset, and What’s Up Doc provide an essential immunity-boost needed during cold and flu season.
The Green Light's pressed organic ginger shots ($3.65-$4.65) are anti-inflammatory, aid in digestion, and help regulate blood sugar levels, keeping you healthy and happy all holiday season long!
Tryst
29 Main Street
Bring the bliss of Tryst into your (or a loved one’s) very own home with the studio’s selection of Face Reality’s gentle, cruelty-free face and body scrub ($30.00), Patchology’s Foot Peel and Foot Care ($22.00), and Capri Blue candles (ranging in price from $10.00-$40.00).
Salty Days Fish Co.
93 South Street
All of that holiday shopping is sure to make you a little hungry! You’ll be in need of clean nutrition that packs a protein punch, so stop by Salty Days Fish Co. Grab a sampling of their new to-go sushi, made fresh in-house for the perfect pick-me-up lunch on-the-go.
Sweet Greens
Sweet Greens is always available at Acquire Good in Downtown Hingham; there’s also always the chance of a possible outdoor holiday pop-up in December! Go to @sweetgreens4you on Instagram for holiday updates.
