July 2016 My Texas Market Box Review
My Texas Market is a monthly subscription box that sends you 4-6 carefully selected products from Texas farmers’ markets and local businesses. The small-batch artisan items fit a monthly theme and could be anything from foods, snacks, teas, candles, beauty products, crafts or any other thing you might find in a Texas farmers’ market. Their purpose is to expose customers to new products and companies while supporting local artisan businesses.
Subscription costs are:
1 month – $35
3 months – $100
6 months – $195
Subscription prices do not include shipping or any applicable taxes. They do promise that the value of each box will be at least $35 -$40 but to not expect that they will send a hugely underpriced box of items. You can cancel at any time or just skip a month if you wish. And if you want to purchase more of something or add to your box, they have an online market with lots of things to choose from.
The Homespun Chics received this box for review purposes. All opinions are 100% our own.
“How Sweet It Is”
The July 2016 My Texas Market box is a celebration of sweets and treats from Texas businesses for the one-year anniversary of this great subscription box! The glossy paper product information card has details about the scrumptious goodies curated for their birthday celebration box and just reading it might put a few pounds on you!
Blue Heron Farm – Original Cajeta Goat Milk Caramel 8 oz
This divine goat milk caramel comes from a small, humane Texas goat farm where goats are born, named, thrive and live out their lives in grassy fields. Happy goats = delicious milk – and so is this goat milk caramel!
EMZ Jamz – The Peach Boys Peach Jam 1 oz
This wonderful and all locally sourced peach jam is handcrafted in Austin. I LOVE peach jam, so it was the first thing to get devoured from of this box of yummies!
EcoBabe – Cupcake Candle
This all-natural soy cupcake candle is hand poured in small batches, clean burning and eco-friendly. The soy is all USA grown and the fragrance is all from essential oils. And the tin container is reuseable. When you open the lid, guess what? It smells like a cupcake!! Happy Birthday, My Texas Market!!
Bona Dea – Outrageous Oat Cookie Gluten-Free Baking Mix 18 oz
Just add butter and water to have great tasting cookies! But wait – there’s more! You can make your cookies vegan just by substituting chilled coconut oil. And you can add in whatever you want, so you can have chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter cookies, whatever you are craving, just by adding them into the mix. This cookie mix is non-gmo, gluten-free, dairy-free and free from nuts and eggs. Plus it is made with organic whole grains. I have to say that cookie mix doesn’t get any better for you than this!
Cornucopia Popcorn – Patriot Pop
This colorful popcorn is from Austin and their business was named Austin’s Best Sampling Room in 2015! The popcorn is fresh and made from non-gmo certified corn with flavors of white sweet popcorn, red cherry, and blue raspberry. It is just delicious and we have enjoyed every piece of it!
The July 2016 My Texas Market box had 5 great items that were perfectly curated to their birthday theme! This has to be one of my favorite boxes from them! I will be in Austin in September and I can’t wait to check out the local businesses and farmers’ markets to buy some more of the great local products we have enjoyed from our favorite subscription box! Have you checked out the My Texas Market subscription box?
Cookies, popcorn, and more. They give you such a variety, and I like the addition of the candle. You house can smell like you’ve been cooking as you eat their goodies.
OH that peach jam and that caramel!! 😮 Drooling over here!! Yummo!!
never heard of this company it must be local wish we had a local company that delivered boxes with down home products
It’s not a cheap box, but it certainly looks like you get more than your money’s worth. That caramel looks especially scrumptious.
So many of these products make me drool! I love them! I also love that the company is promoting small businesses!
