For nearly ten years, the Local Palate has shared stories of Southern makers, products, ingredients, and more. Today, we’re bringing our magazine to life through the Local Palate Marketplace, an e-commerce destination featuring a thoughtfully curated selection of Southern artisan goods for your kitchen, bar, and pantry. We scouted for items across the South and handpicked every product on the site, from local snacks, sweets, and spices to handcrafted cutlery and cookware. Our Marketplace is more than a place to shop—we’re showcasing the region’s most talented makers by sharing the stories behind the people and communities that define the South.
