Between specialty shops and farmers markets, there are plenty of places in Mississippi to stock up on fresh jams and jellies. And one place that shouldn’t be overlooked is Country Tyme Fruitstand. The roadside shop sells a huge variety of jams and jellies – and that’s in addition to a ton of other fresh, locally produced goods. Take a look:
Country Tyme Fruitstand is situated along Highway 49 in Hattiesburg.
As far as the jams and jellies, there's quite an assortment. In addition to standard fruit flavors, you’ll also find some not-so-standard flavors and local favorites, like mayhaw jelly and Satsuma jelly.
And don’t forget about the "famous homemade pepper jelly." The shop carries one of the largest selections around, so you can stock up on all your favorites.
Other tasty items, such as Amish products, syrups, honey, salsa, and pickles, can also be found among the vast selection. You can stock up on desserts, sweets, and other baked goods, too.
