We were incredibly honored when the Maddiwar House of Hope asked if we could lend a hand in helping them prepare for their upcoming gala. Giving back to our communities is at the heart of who we are, and we are always grateful for opportunities to support organizations whose missions are rooted in compassion, empowerment, hope, and care for others.

We believe that when people come together to serve, amazing things happen. It has been a joy to lend a helping hand and support the important work being done through the Maddiwar House of Hope. We can’t wait to see this special evening come to life and celebrate the impact they continue to make throughout our region.

Together, we can make a difference. 💜

We are incredibly excited to share another meaningful part of our June 20th GEMS Midsummer Night’s Dream Tea experience.

The tea that will be served during the evening is called Appalachian Butterfly Tea, created by local tea artisan Patty Reeves of Thelma, Kentucky.

This tea is not only beautiful and delicious — it also carries a unique Appalachian story and history behind it. Inspired by the rich traditions of the mountains, the tea reflects the beauty, healing roots, and natural treasures of our region. Patty lovingly grows and harvests her teas locally, creating blends that feel deeply connected to the land and culture of Eastern Kentucky.

One of the most magical elements of Appalachian Butterfly Tea is its beauty and transformation — something that perfectly reflects the spirit of our event itself. Much like the stories we share, the connections we build, and the way people can bloom through kindness and community, this tea symbolizes growth, beauty, and transformation.

In addition to serving the Appalachian Butterfly Tea during the event, Patty will also have individual containers available for purchase of a very special custom blend created exclusively for our evening:

The GEMS Appalachian Peach Tea

We are honored to showcase Patty’s incredible talent and highlight another amazing local woman-owned business. Supporting local artisans and sharing the heart of Appalachia is such an important part of who The GEMS are, and we cannot wait for everyone attending to experience this special touch of the evening.

The GEMS of Eastern Kentucky recently had the pleasure of visiting Sweet Oaks Bakery and meeting owner Lydia Johnson, Abby and Lexi.

We are always incredibly excited to see beautiful, creative spaces like this growing right here in our local communities. Sweet Oaks offers such a unique and welcoming atmosphere — from rental spaces perfect for meetings, gatherings, and events to thoughtfully designed play areas for children and families to enjoy.

The food was absolutely amazing and beautifully crafted, with so much attention to detail throughout the entire experience. The children’s play rooms were especially impressive, thoughtfully designed with everything from imaginative fire station areas to sensory-sensitive spaces that help create an inclusive and welcoming environment for all children.

It’s inspiring to see local visionaries creating places that bring people together, encourage connection, and provide opportunities for families and communities to gather, celebrate, and make memories. We are grateful for the opportunity to visit and cannot wait to see all the wonderful things ahead for Sweet Oaks!
