Baton Rouge Farmers Market

The farmer's market is great for local vendors and your health.






Buying locally heps out your fellow Louisianians , but eating locally grown products help your health. These guys are here to please your belly! Here are some of my favorites......

lil ole honey bee

I am a big fan of anything honey. A spoonful a day to keep me sweat and healthy. I also use beeswax to wax the thread I use in sewing text blocks for my handmade books.

I buy local honey for its great taste and health benefits. I have not had a cold sense I began taking a spoonful of a day. Knock on wood! I also use local honey in my canning endeavors. I make a "Sweet Heat" BBQ sauce that is honeylicious.

I usually buy my honey at the Baton Rouge Farmers Market. My favorite beekeeper's are..

They have hives all around town. My favorites are "Highland road" and "The old bridge". If you are a honey lover like me stop by the Breada farmer's market every Saturday from 8a.m. to noon. Trust me you will greatly enjoy their company and their honey. If you are interested in some "Sweet Heat" BBQS sauce contact me at grinningjupiter@gmail.com or www.etsy.com/shop/grinningjupiter.

Jess's Organic Ceramics

I love the idea of functional art. Many people think of art as an abstract thought that can only be viewed not held. Jess's ceramic pieces have a conceptual idea that are expressed in clay. Her pieces are extensions of the organic world around us. It makes me happy to sip coffee from a beautiful piece of art. Please support this medium of functional art by visiting BrewHaHa and purchasing your own cup of art!  

I had the pleasure of working with Jess at BrewHaHa and getting to know her as a beautiful person but also an amazing artist.. Jess Brooks is a graduated with her BA in Fine arts from Rhode Island School of Design. Jess is from New London,CT but the good people of BR had her for a little while.Her mugs are currently on sale at BrewHaHa which is located at 711 Jefferson Hwy suite 2A.
