Thanks for stopping by! It was pleasure meeting you. Black Elder Elderberry Syrup & Herbal Apothecary

I went to the Summerville Family YMCA Flowertown Festival today and met these wonderful folks from North Carolina selling a shrimp and grits base with their own grits line and it was hmm, hmm, good! Look them up. They were kind, it was an honor to purchase their product!
