“There is something unique and significant in the relationship between Father and his child. Father’s Day is a special moment to honor this bond, and at Ellicott, we strive to provide one-of-a-kind, meaningful gifts that are as personal as the relationship you have with your own dad.”

This Father’s Day you’re invited to explore the eclectic collection of items at Ellicott & Co. perfect for any man on your gift list.

Ryan Martin and Ryan Smoker co-created Ellicott to offer the Lancaster community handcrafted, quality goods that uplift local makers in Lancaster, regionally, and around the USA. With so many makers working hard to hone their craft and create sustainable, purposeful items, Ryan Martin and Ryan Smoker saw an opportunity to help share these storied traditions and artisan-made gifts.

“At Ellicott we are striving to pay close attention to each detail and we are working to make sure each interaction and item in our shop has a refined level of intentionality to it,” said Martin. “My father has often told me ‘that anything worth doing, is worth doing right.'”

This intentional, meaningful approach to craftsmanship is apparent in the incredible mix of gifts for men available at Ellicott—including accessories, home goods, barware, clothing, luggage, travel guides, hats, wall art, and more. Ellicott’s mission is to inspire the community to truly to consider where they shop, making purchasing decisions based on quality, functionality, beauty, and sustainable, local sourcing. It’s all about intentional living, and Ryan fondly recalls his dad’s shared excitement towards leading a purposeful life with adventure.

“I remember as a kid listening to my dad’s adventures and being captivated by the vivid detail he would share about the few childhood possessions he cherished,” said Martin. “These seemingly everyday items were rich with meaning and seemed to be somehow part of him. Here at Ellicott, we believe that things we carry should be worthy of a good story. We want these items to have lasting personal value, because of the adventures you will take with them.”
