Vendor Spotlight:
Let’s give a big shoutout to the heart and coordinator of The Southern Homestead Market, Becca Galate!
'I'm Becca, the owner of Becca's Jams and Jellies. For over 45 years, I’ve been gardening, canning, and creating jams and jellies. When my food allergies hit hard and I started having children, I felt the need to go beyond traditional flavors. That’s when my passion for herbs began. I love working with herbs and understanding how they improve health, which led me to experiment with blending herbs, gardening, and crafting jams.
Becca’s Jams and Jellies was born from a dedication to health, flavor, and perfection. I cater to those who, like me, have health issues such as diabetes. By using herbal infusions and minimal sugar, I’m able to craft jams and jellies without artificial ingredients or sweeteners. In the 8 years since we’ve been public, not one customer—many of whom are diabetic—has said my jams affect their sugar levels, and we always ask! While I make no health claims, it brings me great pride to see people enjoy something different.
With a total of 63 flavors, there’s something for everyone! My goal is to educate customers on the joys of cooking with jams—there are endless ways to enjoy food without artificial ingredients. I take pride in bringing the very best to our customers and wish everyone health and happiness!' – Becca Galate
