Happi Jam

It all started on a breezy morning in August of 2018. Long Beach resident Terrance Williams. A freshly baked batch of his beloved buttermilk biscuits and no jelly or jam to serve them with. When he laughed about the dilemma to his grandmother back in North Carolina, she reminded him of all the times she made fruit preserves and that maybe….just maybe…he could try his hand at making them. He obliged and tried his luck with a free bag of overripe peaches from a Long Beach Farmer’s Market he frequents. In the days, weeks and months to follow, his family, friends, and coworkers would all make the same suggestion, “You know, you should sell this.”

Now. He does.
