You’re invited!

Join us tonight from 6–8 PM as we celebrate the collaboration behind The Day By Day Experience Boxes!

📦 The Day By Day Experience Box Collection Reveal Party!

This project has been a true labor of love. We have had so much fun with Megan from All Things Sourdough over the past year and a half collaborating on workshops- offering all kinds of fun experiences in store, and now we’re excited to share this new opportunity with you. 🏠

Stop by to enjoy a beverage and complimentary homemade pizza samples featuring The Fun Dinner Experience Box, get a first look at the collection, and celebrate this exciting new chapter with us.

Whether you’re looking for a meaningful gift, a fun date night at home, a new family tradition, or want to learn more about our custom corporate gifting options, we’d love to visit with you. 🤍

We’ve always been a bit of an open book around here, and I think that’s part of what makes Day By Day what it is. Being vulnerable and sharing alllll the seasons of life with you is what humanizes our brand. 🤍

You’ve probably gathered that I’ve been busy behind the scenes developing our new Experience Boxes, which has meant some later nights and early mornings. I’m trying to put a bow on that project before we add a new little blessing to our family so I can take some time to just be.

We’re also gearing up for our first annual cattle sale in September, so that means spending as much time outside as we can right now supporting Kendall and our other family business… and yes that means nights spent picking up lots of p**p! 😅

At work, this week we’re getting ready to send out our annual mailing to 350 bank customers. This year I had the opportunity to design the magazine featuring local entrepreneurs along with the cover of the book that accompanies it!

And in between it all, we’re trying to soak up these last few weeks with Kolter before he gets promoted to big brother. It’s crazy how fast time goes!

I’m not going to lie- this week has felt a little overwhelming trying to stay afloat. Life is beautifully full right now. I wanted to extend a thank you to everyone who has recently joined us, and to those of you who’ve been following along since the beginning. We’re so grateful you’re here!

👉🏻You can catch us at the shop twice this week. We would love to have you for one OR BOTH events!

Buttttt… who are these fun boxes for?! The short answer… Honestly, just about anyone.

✨ A birthday surprise.
✨ A housewarming gift.
✨ A thank-you.
✨ A holiday tradition.
✨ A “just because” gift for someone you love.

But they’re also designed for businesses looking to give something a little more meaningful. HOW COOL! This is a new space for me & something I am totally pumped up for.

Whether you’re thanking employees, celebrating clients, or planning holiday gifts, we offer BULK corporate ordering with custom branding, personalized messaging, and thoughtful details that make each box uniquely yours.

From small teams to larger client gifting projects, we’d love to help create an experience your recipients will remember long after the box is opened. Because the best gifts don’t just get opened… They get experienced. 🤍

Consumer + Corporate boxes will be available for pre-order (shipping this fall) and if you’re interested in creating a custom corporate gifting experience to send out this fall/holiday season, send us a message. We’d love to start the conversation and help bring your vision to life!

Come check these out & ask us all the questions at our The Day By Day Experience Box Collection Reveal Party! this Thursday evening. We will feed you & appreciate your company. 🍕

Join Kristin Kilburg for a beginner-friendly breathwork and meditation class. The practice will be a gentle invitation to slow down and settle in. You’ll be guided through simple breathing practices and a calming meditation paired with music—curated to help you feel grounded, present, and at ease. The focus will be on connection—to self, to the natural beauty around us, and to the quiet strength of community. It’s a peaceful way to begin your Morning on the Mississippi before stepping into a day of local shopping, visiting with neighbors, and supporting the women and small businesses that make this community feel like home. 🏠

This session will take place from 8:15am-9:00am in the grassy area directly across the street from Day By Day Mercantile. You do not need to check in at Day By Day Mercantile beforehand!

Optional: Bring a blanket or pillow to sit on, and maybe a journal + pen for jotting down any reflections or inspirations following the practice!

All are welcome. 🤍

As we continue introducing some new details in regards to our box venture, we thought it would be so fun to do a “Meet the box” post! 📦

Over the past year and a half, we’ve welcomed well over a hundred people around the tables at Day By Day for hands-on cooking experiences with our girl Megan from All things Sourdough by Megan 🥖 Along the way, a few workshops quickly became community favorites. So when it came time to create our very first collection of Day By Day Experience Boxes, the choice was EASY. 👏🏻

We carefully selected four of our most-loved experiences and transformed them into beautifully curated boxes that you can enjoy in your own home- or send as a thoughtful gift to someone you love. 🤍

Each box includes specialty kitchen tools, a beautifully designed recipe magazine, a simple grocery list, a simmer pot, & exclusive video instruction from Chef Megan, so you can create the experience from start to finish with confidence. 💡

🍝The Pasta Experience – Learn to make fresh egg pasta and a traditional ragu sauce from scratch.

🍕The Fun Dinner Experience (Homemade Pizza) – Stretch, top, and bake your own artisan-style pizza.

🥧The Grandma’s Hug Experience (Homemade Apple Pie) – Create a homemade pie from scratch that’s perfect for gathering around the table.

🤤The Pop-Tart Experience – A nostalgic favorite that’s just as fun to make as it is to eat.

Pre-orders open at our The Day By Day Experience Box Collection Reveal Party! on August 6, with boxes shipping this fall.

✨✨TAG someone you feel deserves one of these experiences. We’ll surprise one lovely person to receive our very FIRST consumer Day By Day Experience Box shipped this fall!✨✨
