Who We Are
About Sunshine & Sugar Jams


Meet the Maker Behind the Jars
What started as a teenage love for cooking and a passion for food science and history at The Ohio State University eventually simmered into something sweet. Sunshine & Sugar Jams began with an unexpected surplus of peaches and a spur-of-the-moment decision to try making jam — and it stuck.

Over the years, I dabbled in small batches here and there, but in 2023, I took the leap. I was looking for a creative side hustle and considered baking... but let’s face it, everyone became a bread expert during the pandemic! When I saw a local farmers market needed a jam vendor, I jumped in — and what began as a half-baked idea became a full-fledged business in just a few weeks.

Now, every jar is crafted with care, using real fruit, old-school techniques, and a whole lot of love.

Frequently Asked Questions
 


What's the difference between jam, jelly and preserves?
Great question! Jam is made with crushed fruit, jelly is made from fruit juice, and preserves contain larger pieces or whole chunks of fruit. All of ours are made in small batches with real fruit and lots of love.
 

Do you offer custom or seasonal flavors?
Yes! We love to get creative with seasonal fruit and unique combinations. Our flavor lineup changes with the seasons, so be sure to check our latest offerings or ask us at the market.
 

Where can I buy your jam and jellies?
You can find us at local craft shows, farmers markets, and seasonal events around Nashville.
 

Do you ship or sell online?
Not at this time—we focus on local, in-person sales to keep things fresh and personal. But you’re welcome to reach out for local pickup or special requests!

How long do your jams and jellies last?
Unopened jars are shelf-stable for up to one year. Once opened, keep them in the refrigerator and enjoy within 3–4 weeks for the best flavor.
