Hello! We’re Heather and Erik, the proud owners of Happy Bellies Jars, and we’re so excited to share our story with you.

What started as a fun hobby for Erik—canning homemade jams and experimenting with different flavors—quickly turned into something much bigger when friends and family started encouraging him, saying, “You should totally sell this!” And just like that, the idea for Happy Bellies Jars was born!

We’ve been in business since December of 2019, and our journey began at Marlboro’s Farmers Market. It didn’t take long for us to realize how much joy we found in sharing our homemade jams, butters, and preserves with others. Thanks to the support of our amazing customers, we’ve built a wonderful following and continue to grow every year.

In 2023, our lives took an exciting turn when we became parents to our “market baby” Emilia (or Millie, as we like to call her). She’s brought even more joy to our lives—and our market booth—becoming the official “market baby” everyone loves to meet!

As we look ahead, we’re focused on continuing to grow our small business and share our delicious jams (and a few other exciting products we’re working on!) with everyone we meet along the way. Your continued support means the world to us, and we’re so grateful to have you along for the ride!

We can’t wait to keep creating new flavors and spreading happiness, one jar at a time.

Thank you for being part of our journey!

Heather & Erik
The Happy Bellies Jars Team
