HOLIDAY 2012

Located in Historic Valley Junction, Heart of Iowa Market Place has been the go-to-source for Iowa-themed gifts, delectables and other “can’t get it anywhere else” finds since 1986. We take great pride in designing every gift box or basket with personal attention to detail, creating each one to convey the special message or sentiment you want to express. One of my favorite things about Heart of Iowa Market Place is that I get to meet so many interesting people who are proud of Iowa and want to share that pride with their friends, family, neighbors and clients. We’re a small business but we have a big reach, and we love helping our customers share a true “Taste of Iowa”, whether it’s across the street, across town, in another state or around the world. You have my word that you’ll always be satisfied with your Heart of Iowa Market Place experience. Kelly, her horse PayDay, and dog Allye.
