26 Feb February Hidden Gem Round-Up

What is a rural Iowa hidden gem? Someone who keeps us going! Who do you know that is excelling at their craft, going out of their way to be exceptional, and even though they don’t seek it, should be getting some recognition?

Juniper & Olive Co.

“Juniper & Olive Co. – giving small town Iowa a touch of New York City. With all of the gold and whimsical decor you take a step through time when you walk through the door. It’s a one of kind adventure. *clink clink*” Nominated by Jordan R 

We’ve seen Juniper & Olive Co. featured on many Instagram accounts and it looks like the most aesthetic and feminine space! We can’t wait to visit sometime.

Handcrafted FCD

“Handcrafted FCD in Jewell. She’s selling her own handmade creations while offering many other locally made products. Small business helping other small businesses that might not have an outlet for their products!” Nominated by Nicole J

We love supporting local and those who do the same! It sounds like Handcrafted FCD is a must-visit in Jewell, Iowa.

Emerald Benefits

“Paige Witte in Stuart! I love her new space [Emerald Benefits] on Main Street.” Nominated by Shelly G

Paige made a comment regarding Emerald Benefits! “We do employee benefits for small businesses in rural Iowa and our space also is a rental space for small parties of 20-30 people. We’ve been told before that our space is the coolest insurance spot they have seen!” Make sure to check it out the next time you’re in Stuart, Iowa.
