Botanist & Barrel crafts real southern ciders, sours, and dry fruit wines. We are the Souths only natural cidery focused on spontaneous and wild cultures. We craft healthy adult lifestyle beverages for any occasion. We support our local farmers using local sustainably and organically sourced fruits, including blueberries, apples and more from our no spray estate farm. Only tree ripened apples are used in our ciders with a focus on traditional southern heritage cider apples.
All of our ciders and wines contain little to no residual sugar and are low calorie. As an experimental winery we have almost no rules with the exceptions being we never add additives like sulfites and we do not fine, filter or pasteurize any of our ciders or wines.
Our newest releases you’ll find at market this week are:
Chai of the Tiger
This new batch of our collaboration cider with Asheville Tea Company’s Chocolate Habanero Chai tea blend is perfectly spicy to warm your soul during this unpredictable winter.
Pink is a Feeling
Out just in time for Valentine’s Day. This special cider blend is aged on the skins of 4 different grapes, chambourcin, noble, carlos & magnolia to make a beautiful pink cider/wine hybrid.

By The Brook Tempeh will be at Saturday’s Farmers’ Market and is elated about spring market being back in session!
We specialize in non-soy, artisan blends of legumes, peas, lentils, and seeds to create a well-balanced and highly digestible plant protein with a fantastic texture and versatile flavor.
By The Brook Tempeh is based in Saxapahaw, created by fermentation enthusiast Taylor Westbrook. Our North Star is to contribute to a sustainable future by reciprocating our local food systems, supporting the human microbiome, and elevating accessibility through relationships. Along the way, we’d also like to normalize plant-based proteins for all diets, including meat-eaters, by offering an appealing product in its own right, not merely as an alternative.
This week we'll be stocked up with all of our signature blends, a mix of our other burgers and our notorious tempeh chorizo. Also, we'll be launching a new and very exciting tempeh product: Sage Country-Style patties! Come on out and ask us "What the heck is tempeh?" That's our favorite question!

Farmhouse Cheese Are you caught up in March madness and planning a meal with friends? Use our savory Hickory Grove for a delicious grilled cheese sandwich or a cheeseburger with our beef; use fresh and tangy Dairyland Farmers for tacos with Chorizo or beef. Mix and match cheeses for a cheese board. We have a well-aged Thunder Mt. Swiss, YoYo our version of an unsweetened yogurt, Carolina Moon, New Moon, pungent Danziger, Hickory Grove, Calvander (our Asiago style), Dairyland Farmers, Hot Farmers, semi-aged New Moon, and hopefully a little Dill Farmers. New Moon is a button size cheese that’s a younger version of our Carolina Moon. It has a flaky texture and light, milky flavor, Carolina Moon is aged longer, so that it has more complex flavors and a creamy texture.
Pastured Beef -SALE on ground beef and ground round! Order some ahead at the link below. We will offer these at a sale price if you buy 2 of each. (Ground beef 2 for $12 instead of $7 each and ground round at $14 for 2 instead of $8 each. We also have various steaks and chuck roasts. We’re bringing a recipe for Korean flank steak that we think you’ll like. Our herd is Animal Welfare Approved, pasture raised, and known for its flavor.
Whey Fed Pork We have Pork Chops, Smoked Ham Hocks, and mild and hot sausages. Covid limited our stock of pigs so we may run low on some flavors; get your favorites before they run out. Check our sign at the market to see what we have each week, or place a preorder for cheese or meat.

We are thrilled to join the market as a full member this season! Woo hoo! Thank you for all your support! We’ll see you Saturday with our full line of tinctures and extracts.
Lately we’ve been hustling to dig and make our weedy root tinctures, yellow dock, dandelion, and burdock. We were either out or nearly out of all of them, all ingredients in Happy Liver, Clear Skin. This is a foundational and very popular medicine, so I’m thankful we are going to be able to hopefully get a new batch ready without much of a disruption, though our current batch has nettle substituted for cleavers as a diuretic alterative. These herbs stimulate and nourish our liver and generally encourage elimination, digestion, and assimilation of nutrients. While it is formulated as a skin formula (and is very effective for this purpose), alteratives are beneficial therapies when the body is struggling with any kind of chronic condition and inflammation. As my teacher and former DFM herbalist Will Endres would say, “Weeds for your needs!”
Did you know you can save money by ordering larger sizes of your favorite Full Flower Herbs formulas and simples? We can make 4 and 8 Oz sizes of any of our regular offerings. Many are available for purchase on Etsy. Use the coupon code LOCALPICKUP to remove shipping costs, and leave us a note that you want to pick up at market.
See you soon,
Lindsay Perry
Community Herbalist

Hopefully, our Ace vegetable grower and farm manager, Mario, will be returning this week from spending time with his family in Mexico. We hope they will be able to join him on the farm in the next several months. It has been a LONG TIME waiting with filing the correct paperwork, expenses, and the following mandatory government protocols.
Also, we have great news: our wonderful market helper, Sofia, is staying in the US! Tammy, Mario, and I really enjoy her helping us at the market and the customers love her! She is so knowledgeable about local food. We can't wait until our other Italian friend, Francesco, comes back to the US in August ... they are both helping us plan and organize the small farmer fundraiser, Dinner in the Meadow, scheduled for Sunday, September 11th.
Many of you have asked for a VISIT to our farm, so mark your calendar for Sunday, May 15th from 10:00 a.m. -- 6:00 p.m.! We will offer a walk around the farmhouse and Century old barns, describing the old commisonary and wellhouse, hen house, smoke house, Mule barn, Seed barn, and more. You will be able to drive down the road to the greenhouse and organic vegetable fields. Bring your cooler and stock up on organic ripe strawberries and asparagus along with meats.

Happy April! Why not start it off by trying a new kimchi- broccoli rabe? It’s closer to turnip family than it is to broccoli, but don’t let that scare you. Fermenting the greens has mellowed out its characteristic bitterness, leaving a tangy, surprisingly crisp (for greens), and tasty kimchi. It’s especially good in fried rice- just sautee the kimchi in butter, add some cooked rice, eggs, some soy sauce and sesame oil- and you’ve got a very easy meal.
Current menu: Napa cabbage, green cabbage, green garlic, radish, collard greens, mustard greens, kohlrabi and carrot, broccoli raab (NEW!)
