We – and you, most likely – know all about the awesome things local makers are doing, especially with food. But it’s nice to see the rest of the country take notice, too! Homespun vendors 240sweet and Hoosier Momma were recently featured by national media outlets – O, The Oprah Magazine and Time.com. Read more in Jolene Ketzenberger’s Indy Star piece here. Congrats, ladies!

Indy’s own Hoosier Momma Bloody Mary Mix was featured in the Dec. 29 edition of the Los Angeles Times. In May 2011, the Times’ Chris Erskine visited Indianapolis and wrote a heartening story about his visit. The lowlight of his visit, though, was the Bloody Mary he ordered at St. Elmo. Being a first-rate establishment, St. Elmo responded to the criticism by replacing their mix with Hoosier Momma’s. Win-win.

Erskine calls Hoosier Momma Bloody Mary Maker, “a mitzvah, a miracle of spiced tomatoes” and encourages his readers to order bottles for shipment. Lucky for you that you can get both regular and spicy versions of Hoosier Momma right here at Homespun.

Congratulations to Erin Jones-Edds and K.C. Cranfill on their continued success!
