Whether you are visiting, or if you call Louisiana home, Parish Parcel ensures you get a taste of Louisiana every month. The Lafayette-based company partners with local artists, chefs, musicians and craftsmen to deliver curated monthly subscription boxes to your home. Each box contains six to eight uniquely Cajun and Louisiana-made items, which can vary from spices and apparel to food, art, music, recipes and other Louisiana-made merchandise.

“With so many visitors coming to Louisiana each year, this is a great way for them to take a bit of our rich culture of food, music and art home with them,” says Maria Muro, founder of LiveWell Louisiana. “For those who have moved away, this is a great way to alleviate homesickness. And for those of us lucky enough to call Louisiana home, these boxes are perfect for discovering local offerings. I also love that part of Parish Parcel’s mission is to provide awareness and support of Louisiana-based nonprofits that support culture and coastal restoration.” Boxes from $29-49 per month. parishparcel.com
