CHARLESTON - I spent a weekend in Charleston with the Garden & Gun team, soaking up the city’s Southern charm and celebrating their annual Made in the South Awards. The three-day affair highlighted the region’s best craftsmanship and makers with a full roster of festivities, including a concert by Amanda Shires and Aaron Lee Tasjan at the Charleston Music Hall and a globally inspired dinner party at the historic Aiken-Rhett House with delicious food by Southern chef Asha Gomez. The best part of the weekend: a top-notch makers market selling goods from this year’s talented batch of winners and finalists — many of which would make excellent holiday gifts. Here, a selection of Southern-made favorites ideal for gift giving. Happy shopping.
