Awards & Stories

Picklin’ Parson products have earned recognition and awards for the same reason families keep coming back to them year after year — authentic flavor, handcrafted quality, and recipes rooted deeply in Southern tradition. From state fair honors to customer favorites, these jams, pickles, chutneys, and fruit butters stand out for their bold taste, fresh ingredients, and old-fashioned care. Every ribbon and recognition represents more than great food; it reflects generations of Texas farm heritage, a commitment to craftsmanship, and the belief that the best recipes are the ones made with heart, shared with community, and passed from one table to the next.

Wisdom From The Farm

Step into the daily life and heart of Stillwater Farm Texas through stories, conversations, videos, and reflections from Pastor Stan and the Picklin’ Parson community. From sunrise musings across the fields and quiet moments of prayer to conversations about regenerative farming, heritage cooking, animals, stewardship, and the rhythms of rural life, this is a place to slow down, gather encouragement, and reconnect with what matters most. Watch life unfold on the farm, share in faith and fellowship, hear stories from the kitchen and garden, and explore the wisdom found in caring for the land, feeding people, and building community around the table. Through thoughtful writings, videos, recipes, and reflections, Pastor Stan invites others to experience a simpler, more grounded way of living rooted in faith, hospitality, and purpose.

“Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story…”— Psalms

The Picklin’ Parson media page is more than a collection of videos, interviews, recipes, and stories — it is a place where faith, farming, food, and community come together to be shared with others. Through conversations from Stillwater Farm Texas, fairgrounds, kitchens, podcasts, cookbooks, and gatherings around the table, Pastor Stan uses storytelling to preserve traditions, encourage meaningful connection, and remind people that simple acts of kindness still matter. Whether through recipes, reflections, regenerative farming discussions, or community outreach, every story shared is part of a larger mission rooted in gratitude, hospitality, stewardship, and hope.
