Vendor Spotlight One of my besties!
Abiding Fruit Co. Founded by Nikki Blackburn in 2024, Abiding Fruit Co. was built on the belief that the best things in life—and the best flavors in the jar—come from staying connected to the Source.

Nikki’s journey with fruit began at age 14, learning how to make strawberry jam in the kitchen with her mom and great-grandmother. Today, she continues that tradition, hand-crafting small-batch artisan preserves that honor both family tradition and local ingredients.

John 15: "I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit."
The heart of the Abiding Fruit Co. lies in John 15, where we are reminded that we can do nothing apart from the Vine. At Abiding Fruit Co., every jar is a celebration of what happens when we slow down, stay rooted, and "abide" in the goodness provided for us by our Heavenly Father.

Stop in and support another local small business with a big heart♥️
