Cedar and Moon Apothecary
Cedar and Moon is an Indigenous ran apothecary utilizing traditional ancestral knowledge.
"Cedar & Moon Apothecary works in relation with nature which means offerings are seasonal and may change based on what Mother Nature has blooming and available. I only tincture fresh plant material, ensuring that each tincture is well balanced and energetically whole. As an Indigenous woman doing this work on my traditional homelands, preservation and conservation are deeply important to me and at the very heart of my practice. Myself and my family work incredibly hard to grow and forage the plant ally's we use to make the many different herbal offerings you've come to know and love. To ensure the sustainability and preservation of these incredible plant relatives, I only make small batches, and a lot of my offerings are only available once or twice throughout the year. I ethically source the plant material I cannot grow or forage myself from Mountain Rose Herbs, as they are the only herb company I trust. Their core values on sustainability and organic agriculture match my own, and I'm grateful for their trailblazing efforts." - Melissa Mizell Nichols, Owner

Southern Chili Lab
Founders Jonathan Kastner & Tyler Braun were both born and raised in Lafayette, LA, but have worked in some of the best kitchens all over the United States and the world. After years & years of working in restaurants, they both yearned for an outlet to create delicious products that could be shared with everyone. One night at a mutual friend's bbq, the idea of a creating a hot sauce business began to take shape. After months of R&D, Southern Chili Lab was born.
Fermentation is at the core of every product we develop. This preservation technique adds a depth of flavor that is unmatched. We lacto ferment our sauces using Trapani sea salt from the coasts of Italy. Fermented for just long enough to develop the distinct sour notes only achieved using this method.

Cooper Farm
Our family-owned nursery is passionate about growing our own organic food, REAL food, and helping others learn. Kitti has a real passion for teaching others and helping community achieve this on their own. Kitti started gardening into her school days simply for food. She is self-taught not for the fun of it but to provide food for her family. Kitti quickly picked up selling extra garden starts and vegetables to co-workers, to the farmers market, and it all just kept rolling from there. Organic food is important for your mental and physical health. It doesn’t need to feel like survival mode for ANYONE.
We want to teach as many as possible about how to grow their own food. Our Coopers Table is 100% dedicated to providing real food via overproduction of local farmers, homesteaders and bakers. We hope one day to replace all these crepe myrtles with community fruit trees but until then we want to donate and plant fruit trees in all the low income areas, build raised beds for vegetables gardens, teach individuals who need a foot up how to seed start, grow and preserve their own food.
We love to share our knowledge and help our community.
