LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Looking for a uniquely Lake County gift to give this holiday season?

For the ninth year in a row, Bountiful Boxes are back.

Once again, the Lake County Hunger Task Force will be offering for sale local foodstuffs in a beautiful gift box.

The boxes contain all Lake County products, including comice pears, golden delicious apples, walnuts, honey sticks, and either red or white wine, plus a limited number with olive oil.

They are $50 each, and only 108 will be sold.

Conceived as a fundraising idea by Michelle Scully in 2010 to benefit the Hunger Task Force, they have proven to be popular holiday gifts or simply food to share with friends.

They previously won a Star of Lake County award as best new idea.

The boxes will be available for pick up on Thursday, Dec. 13 only, from 2 to 6 p.m. at Scully Packing in Finley.
