Custom Sugar Cookies

I'm Savanna Rose and I bake and ice custom sugar cookies from scratch. What sets my cookie business apart, however, is that I design custom graphics, images and logos, and print them in full-color on my cookies using a food-grade printer with edible ink. I'm capable of fulfilling bulk cookie orders for weddings, businesses, events, and more. I can print literally anything on a cookie, from photos, logos, text, and art, all without the strange wafer paper that typically comes on printed cookies.

Microgreens Farm - Year-round, Indoor in South Knoxville

On a mission to bring healthy food to East Tennessee. Super Nerd/Maker turned micro farming automation guy. I'm not a doctor but I know everybody eats way to much sugar and processed food and should eat more veggies - I'm out make that happen - at least in K-Town. My 'barn' looks more like a makerspace than a place to store hay.

McKenzie Farms Distilling Company

Corn Grits + Cornmeal Dry Mixes

McKenzie Farms is owned by Marisa & Thomas McKenzie located in Newport, TN. We specialize in non-GMO, heirloom corn and other heirloom grains grown in East Tennessee. Our products can be used in any almost any recipe for baking, cooking, and even some brewing or distilling.

McKenzie Farms brand products is just one small part of our farm production. To understand, let me start at the beginning (not the complete beginning, just a few steps back. It will make sense, I promise).

Thomas McKenzie has been a whiskey distiller for over 20 years. He’s one of the first in his family to do it legally. He learned from his grandfathers, who made sought after moonshine in the woods of south Alabama. His father was a farmer, a businessman, a local politician, mechanic, and all around good man. Thomas learned to make liquor from his grandfathers and farm grain and raise cattle from his father, took forestry classes in high school and read a lot of books, and has been mentored by the best master distillers in the world. He didn’t know it growing up, that his ‘education’ he received would give him the tools he needed to become the distiller he is today.

The other McKenzie, Thomas’s wife Marisa grew up in the north and only knew cornbread from a Jiffy box. But she was raised by parents who loved to cook and food was meant to be shared with friends and family. Growing up in Indiana, Marisa was surrounded by corn fields and only knew ‘knee high by the fourth of July’. Marisa has learned how to cook pretty good grits and cornbread now. The quality ingredients help.

We hope you enjoy them, share them, and cook with them. If you make whiskey with them, that’s fine too, but probably best not to share that with too many others. Y’all come back.

Weekly Wagon

Crates for delivering regionally sourced foods

Weekly Wagon started from a desire to eat local food easy. I would go to farmer's markets and talk with people about this. Around that time, a farmer named Troy mentioned that an apartment complex in Chattanooga had once approached him about delivering directly to their residents. It's more common now than ever before that Knoxville residents care about what they eat, where it came from, and how it was grown. Weekly Wagon is here for those kinds of question. It delivers regionally sourced foods directly to your door.
