Hand-dried on the homestead · Est. 2026

A little sunshine
for your water.

Organic fruit, freeze-dried in small batches and tucked into mason jars. Drop a slice in your glass and watch the garden bloom again.

Freeze-drying doesn’t just preserve the fruit — it intensifies it. One slice in your water gives you more of that bright, tart lemon flavor than squeezing in a fresh wedge.

  Certified organic No sugar added Nothing but fruit

“I was shocked at how magnified the flavor of the lemons were! One lemon dropped in my water and I get instant flavor that last throughout the day!”

Why freeze-dried

All the fruit, none of the fuss.

Freeze-drying pulls the water out while it’s frozen — so the slice keeps its color, its nutrients, and that just-picked snap. No heat, no sugar, no funny business.

01

Just the fruit

One ingredient, full stop. Certified-organic produce with no sugar, no preservatives, and nothing you can’t pronounce.

02

Nutrients kept in

Because there’s no heat, the vitamins and bright flavor that ordinary drying cooks away stay right where they belong.

03

Light & shelf-stable

Featherlight and pantry-friendly — a sealed jar keeps for months, so good fruit is always within reach.

04

Made to rehydrate

Drop a slice in water and it drinks right back to life — gentle flavor, a pretty glass, and not a drop of waste.

From Roxy

My first business, grown at home.

I’m Roxy — a teenager who grew up on a little homestead, learning from my family how to grow, dry, and put up the good stuff. Roxy’s Cottage is where I share it: organic fruit, dried slow and packed by hand. Every jar comes from our kitchen to yours.

The pantry

Picked, sliced, and put up in two tidy ways.

Every fruit comes two ways — a gift-ready mason jar to start with, and a resealable refill pouch to keep it going.

The Mason Jar. A 6 oz glass jar, finished with twine and a hand-written label. Holds roughly a glass-a-day for two weeks — and it’s ready to gift just as it is.

The Refill Pouch. A resealable 8 oz mylar bag that locks in freshness. Top up your jar when it runs low — less packaging, same good fruit.

How to use

Drop, sip, enjoy.

No measuring spoons, no mess. A slice or two turns a plain glass of water into something worth slowing down for.

1

Drop it in

Two to three slices per glass, five or six for a full pitcher. More for bolder, fewer for a whisper.

2

Sip & refill

Top up the same slices once or twice through the day — then eat them, garden-fresh.
