This Mother’s Day consider a gift with a Missouri twist. Exclusive items from locations across the state would make memorable gifts for mom this year.

Here are a few ideas:

A close-up image of liquid soap bottles on a shelf.

Indigo Wild in Kansas City uses goat’s milk, botanical extracts and other natural ingredients to make a variety of products – including soap, lotion, and lip balm – in more than a dozen scents. Try the new Mumzie Zum bar soap and aromatherapy mist made with lemongrass and lavender.

Find custom-designed stationery (like a Mother’s Day card!), notecards, notebooks and journals at 1Canoe2 in Fulton. The shop also offers phone cases, hand towels, recipe boxes and more.

Three different varieties of Mother's Brewing Company's beer, poured into glasses, and displayed on a bar.

For moms who appreciate craft beer, consider a gift from Mother’s Brewing Company, based in Springfield but available throughout the state. Their Little Helper variety is a perfect choice for IPA lovers.

Take the traditional box of chocolates to the next level with a gift from Bissinger’s Handcrafted Chocolatier in St. Louis. The limited edition Carl Bissinger Collection comes in a newly designed spring flower wrapping.

For quilting enthusiasts, consider a gift from the Missouri Star Quilt company in Hamilton. Choose a pre-cut quilt kit, quilting book or a gift card so your mom can choose a favorite fabric for her next creation.

Goat cheese from Baetje Farms would make a unique gift for the foodie mom in your family. It’s made in Bloomsdale, but widely available in grocery stores across the state.

For one-of-a-kind handmade gifts, check out Poppy’s in Columbia. Jewelry, home décor items and paper goods are a few of the things that you will find.

A made-in-Missouri experience is always a great gift. Consider tickets to a Cardinals or Royals game, the Fabulous Fox Theater, or the new Wonders of Wildlife Museum and Aquarium.

Whether your mom calls Missouri home or it’s a place she loves to visit, a gift from the Show-Me State is a sure way to make this Mother’s Day a special one.
