Lee and Key Key are at the markets!

You can find The Juice Apothecary JUICE at HickoryFarmersMarket and Lake Norman Area Farmers Market

Why do you need our juice?

Not all juice is created equal.

Cold-pressing uses slow hydraulic pressure instead of fast blades — no heat, no oxidation, no foam. Just pure, raw, living juice.

✨ The Benefits:
🍊 Preserves enzymes that heat and friction destroy
🥬 Higher nutrient density — more vitamins and minerals per sip
💧 Gentle on digestion, easy for your body to assimilate
🌱 Supports detoxification and cellular hydration
🔋 Raw, living food = raw, living energy
🌸 Less oxidation means better color, flavor, and freshness

Your body doesn’t need more to digest — it needs more life force to heal. That’s the difference between drinking juice and drinking medicine.

Come see us at the market this week and taste it for yourself.

Complete restock from Julie Abernathy Long! We’ve got garlic fermenter honey, canned Kraut and fire cider in the apothecary. Grab yours before they’re gone. They go FAST 💚

Ready for a detox? Comment DETOX and we’ll send you details about our detox program. 👇

🚨 OOPS JUICE ALERT 🚨

We blended two of our faves by accident and... we’re not mad about it.

This one’s a mashup of GREEN ENVY (cucumber, green apple, kale, lemon) + MINT LIFE (pineapple, celery, green apple, lemon, mint)

Here’s why you want this in your hands today:

🥒 Cucumber — hydrating, cooling, packed with water content
🍎 Green apple — crisp, fiber-rich, a little natural sweetness
🥬 Kale — loaded with vitamins A, C & K
🍍 Pineapple — bromelain + a tropical kick
🌾 Celery — mineral-rich, super hydrating
🍋 Lemon — vitamin C, brightens the whole blend
🌱 Mint — refreshing, cooling, aids digestion

Only $9 while it lasts — once it’s gone, it’s gone. Grab yours before this happy accident disappears!

🌅 RISE & GLOW 🌅

Before the coffee. Before the emails. Before the day gets loud.

Carrot, apple, lemon, ginger — cold-pressed and ready the moment you are.

Lemon has long been a morning staple for digestion and hydration. Ginger’s known for its warming, anti-inflammatory kick. Carrots bring beta-carotene and antioxidants. Apple ties it together with natural sweetness. Together, it’s the kind of ingredient lineup wellness folks reach for to support their body’s natural rhythms.

Make it part of the ritual. 🥕🍏🍋

Call or stop by if you want to be a part of our farmer’s market team! It’s a vibe, y’all. 💚

Don’t forget Kaitlin is at TK TRAINING & WELLNESS sharing samples of juice to celebrate their 4 year anniversary and grand opening.

We love these guys and are so excited for this new chapter!

Taylor is fierce in her beliefs which reflects in how she shows up to help others. We’re super grateful to be a part of this special event!
