About Us
What's in a Name?
In the 1700's, small businesses were popping up all over Colonial New England. As time passed and demand increased, business owners took on peddlers to travel throughout the colonies to sell their wares. The Yankee Peddler was born. These peddlers served as conduits to bring unique products to the colonies that dotted the land.

Yankee Peddler Gift Baskets carries on this tradition by working with local, Connecticut-based vendors to bring their unique products to you. Connecticut is home to many small companies that produce incredible products.  Products that are made by people who are truly passionate about what they do. 

We believe that great things are made in small batches. You just don't get the same level of quality and taste in a national-brand, mass-produced product that you do in one that is hand-crafted by a small business.  

Our concept is simple: bring collections of these unique, Connecticut-made items together under one name so that they can be shared and enjoyed by all.
