12/14/2022
We've had 1 event to cancel this month due to bad weather and I'm not too sure about one of the 2 events scheduled for this week. This Thurs, 12/15, we, along with 10 other SENIOR vendors, will be at the Senior Craft Market at the DeSoto Senior Center, (inside event) YEEAAHH!!!, from 10 til 2. Duncan Switch is scheduled for this Saturday. Hmmmm, we'll have to wait and see. The weather is pretty chilly right now and Saturday ain't looking much better. The Duncanville Chamber of Commerce will have the final decision on that one... In the mean time, we will prep as if everything is a go! We will have gift boxes and individual jar sales. Looking forward to meeting new people and saying hello to returning customers.

It sure has been a minute since we blogged on the website!
Our apologies...we do have a good excuse; two actually. Between making products and doing shows, we've had little time to get to the computer and post on the blog. Since our last post, we have been in the commercial kitchen making late season preserves, participating in several markets, food shows, tastings and webinars galore! We are thankful for all the opportunities as exhausting as some of them have been. Well, the holiday season is almost upon us and Providence Preserves is cranking it up again! In cooperation with a few other Black, female-owned food businesses, we will be offering corporate level gifting this season. Stay tuned!!! I guess its Peach AND Pickle season

So we've been in the commercial kitchen making Peach Jam, Berry-Peachy Jam, Peach Habanero Jam and Sugar-Free Peach Jam. But this isn't just the season for peaches; we've been making pickled items too: Pickled Okra, Dilly Beans, Squash Pickles and Bread & Butter Pickles. We're getting our veggies from Aisle 5ive this season since We Over Me Farm only has cukes growing right now.  All RAW veggies: okra, cukes, squash & green beans  Same veggies PRESERVED: okra, cukes, squash & green beans Its Peach Season

So, what do you do when you got lots of peaches and lots of ginger? Do you create a new jam? Peachy Ginger? Or, do you make what has been tried and true like Peach Jam, Berry-Peachy Jam and Peach Habanero Jam?    We're back!

Its been a minute ... or two since we last posted. There's been a lot going on; from the passing of a beloved relative to saying goodbye to friends & family moving back to the east coast, to meeting sons' significant other to celebrating our 50th high school reunion with our 1972 classmates. Talking about a roller coaster of emotions!!! But we're back to doing our thing- making preserves. Its Jalapeno Mint Jelly time. The mint as well as the dill & rosemary are all looking good.  Freshly picked mint  The end-product Jalapeno Mint Jelly! West Wall Street @ Deep Ellum
5/1/2022
This has been a busy weekend for us. Doing a show 2 days in a row is more than a notion! West Wall Street @Deep Ellum was a VERY high energy market. This first-time market featured minority-owned female businesses. Needless to say, I was in very good company. The area is known to have lots of tourist and this past weekend was no exception. Just about all of our Friday customers were from out-of-state. Our first customers, pictured here, were from Fort Myers Florida. Local ABC affiliated station WFFA, did a short feature about the West Wall Street/Deep Ellum event. Keep preserving those memories!    We have been in the commercial kitchen all morning making Strawberry Jam, Tomato pear Chutney and Squash Pickles for the 2 day West Wall Street event in Deep Ellum this wknd. We and 24 other vendors will be in the courtyard area of the Harlowe MXM on Malcolm X and Main from 11 til 4. We are excited and looking forward to seeing our returning customers and meeting new ones. Come on by and get you favorite jams, pickles, chow-chow and southern biscuit mix. See you there! #strawberryjam #squashpickles #tomatopearchutney #southernbiscuitmix #westwallstreet #deepellum #supportsmallbusinesses #smallbatchpreserves #providencepreserves       Providence Preserves and 24 other vendors will be at the West Wall Street @ Deep Ellum event this Friday & Saturday, April 29 & 30 at The Harlowe MXM on Main St & Malcolm X Blvd, downtown Dallas, from 11am until 4pm.
