Made in Mississippi!

In 2021, Lori McKenzie was trying to decide what she should do with a batch of fresh homegrown cucumbers. Her husband, Dan, suggested that she make a batch of cinnamon pickles like his mother used to make. Lori made them and took some on a relish tray to share with her coworkers. “My manager was my mentor because she was into pickling. She tried the cinnamon pickles and told me, ‘I don’t know why you don’t take them to the farmers market,'” Lori said. The pickles were a huge success and are still quite popular with Lori's customers!

Lori said it is amazing how far she has come in a year. She only had a table last year as she enters the second year of coming to farmers markets.

Her husband Dan spent 20 years working in the packaging and labeling industry and created the labels featured on the jar’s lids. It helps to have his graphic design expertise, Lori said.
