For the morning dad
Coups de cœur du matin: this is the name of this gift box whose profits will be used, through the Procure organization, to support the fight against prostate cancer and to fund research projects in Quebec . Valued at $175, it contains essential products for the morning routine — soaps from Savonnerie des Diligences, Cremone coffee beans from Barista Microtorréfacteur, cocoa hazelnut spread from Stefano Faita… — and even a booklet of coupons for golf and a gift card at Ben & Florentine. In addition, a official donation receipt of $35 is given for each box purchased.

For the adventurer
Does the man in your life love the outdoors and mountain hiking? Why not offer him comfortable clothes designed to practice his favorite activity? We particularly like the unisex pieces of Petit Montagnard with their original patterns that do not go unnoticed. Bonus: the children’s collection allows the twinning. Imagine your lover and your offspring wearing the same knit… Or your father and his grandson. Either way, that would be so cute!

The boxes also include sauces and sides. An ideal gift for the father who likes to celebrate around a good barbecue.
