WHAT'S IN STORE?
We wanted to create an old time general store in Bywater
Something like every New Orleans neighborhood used to have. A corner store that satisfied a variety of needs for nearby neighbors and those passing through. A place where you could find a little bit of everything.
Handmade local New Orleans apothecary goods
Southern Rhoades crafts an array of balms, salves, soaps, oils, sprays, scrubs, and more using homegrown herbs, citrus, roses, and peppers.
We're just your lil' Bywater neighborhood shop
Pop in for small unique gifts, handmade beeswax taper candles, Hazeltine Candles, greeting cards from Mattea's Hand, Lionheart Prints and Little Histories, Piety + Desire chocolate bars, Hey Coffee! beans, Church Alley Tea, Bee Pure Apiary raw honey, and Parleaux Hop Water.
Proud to offer select wellness and beauty items
Everything you need like deodorant, bath soaks, bath bombs, shower steamers, soaps, all-natural sea sponges, Oxalis Apothecary face wash, eco-friendly toothbrushes, razors and grooming/shaving, Redecker brushes and combs, pumice stones, massage brushes, and nail brushes. Plus incense, Palo Santo, and hand-rolled homegrown smudge sticks.
Something old - pick through antique, vintage, and classics
Peruse memorable finds from estate sales, travels, & antique stores. Goodies like vintage glassware and barware, candlesticks, postcards, drugstore bottles, patches, religious statues, vases, ashtrays, artwork, enamelware, salt + pepper shakers, advertising, lamps, and weird things.
Buy the ounce, we'll weigh it out
Shop candy, coffee, tea, oils, herbs, spices, Camelia Red Beans, local sugar, Crop to Pop popcorn, cleaning supplies, toothpaste tablets, and shampoo or soap. Grab a Candy Card to pre-pay for your kid so they can grab their own gummy worms, lemon drops, rock candy, and jelly beans.
Re-use and help the planet with sustainable options
Use eco-friendly dish brushes, bamboo drinking straws and kitchen utensils, bottle scrubbers, honey sticks, leather fly swatters, feather dusters, brooms, scrub brushes, record album brushes, and market bags.

FAMILY INSPIRATION
We carry the spirits of our ancestors with us daily. Our families have a history of creating - whether it be a new food or a "healing water", plus a heritage of storefronts - groceries, tailors, and hardware stores. We are excited to continue the tradition in our new Bywater shop.
STEPHEN J BARTUSH
Jessica's great-grandfather had several Detroit general stores. He is the young man wearing the white apron with a hand on his hip.
Photo circa 1915. Quaker Oats and grocery products can be seen in the storefront window.
CAROLYNE RIVIERE
Greg's grandmother is the namesake of "Nana's Rose Garden" products. 1947 Rose Queen in the Rose Capital of the World - Tyler, Texas.
Her family operated Riviere Bottling Company, crafting "healing water" (with purported "medicinal effects"), mineral water, and other beverages using local spring water.
CHARLES AND MARY JANE BARTUSH
Jessica's grandfather's 1950 Texas State Fair Exhibitor's Ticket.
His wife, Mary Jane Green, is the inspiration behind our "Mary Jane's" product line.
JOHN J DENGLER
Greg's great-grandfather owned a hardware store, toy store, and gift shop in Belleville, Illinois.
This spool of ribbon was used to package gifts and home goods. Purchases were wrapped in butcher paper and then tied with a bow.
