I was out running errands when a little roadside honey stand caught my eye. I pulled over, looked around, and left with a bottle of local honey. Moments like this are why I love living and making things in West Tennessee.
The stand was full of the small details that tell you someone cares: a hand-built wooden shelter, rows of honey, and hives nearby under the trees. The sign out front reads East Solo Honey Co. in Covington. It was a reminder that behind a local product are real people doing the daily work of making and growing something.
As I build Patchwork Apothecary, I want it to feel connected to the people and makers around me. Supporting another small business means putting money back into our community and helping someone keep doing work they believe in.
Would you like to see carefully chosen local makers and products featured in the Apothecary on my website? Tell me what kinds of local goods you would love to find there.
If you are nearby, go show this honey stand some love directly: East Solo Honey Co., 1120 Ray Lane, Covington, Tennessee. Supporting local starts with showing up for one another.
