Rooted in Nature Festival

Homegrown * Handmade * Food and Gifts

Batch in Saxonburg, Pennsylvania is a women owned business. Meghan and Jessica are two women with one dream, to live a life growing, creating, and eating. Most all of the ingredients that go into their products are either grown by them or as locally sourced as possible  according to the season. Their vision is to connect the produce and the people who grow it directly to the food that they create. This makes our jams, jelly and whatever else we create fresh and bursting with local flavor.
