About Big Mama’s Backyard Garden

Since launching in Ocober 2022, we’ve sold over 15,000 bottles of Big Mama’s Calamondin Vinaigrette and shipped DTC to all 50 states—including Alaska and Hawaii. Now in 21 stores and the top-selling salad dressing at Milam’s Markets, we’re growing fast with a production capacity of 25,000 bottles/year and are well-capitalized to scale. Inspired by **Lois Marks—aka Big Mama—**our small-batch vinaigrettes are crafted from her Florida backyard garden filled with citrus trees, herbs, and greens. For over 40 years, Big Mama blended fresh ingredients into dressings full of flavor, not fillers. Our signature vinaigrette features Calamondin, a rare citrus that’s part lime, part tangerine. It’s vegan, gluten-free, and made without preservatives, cholesterol, or added sugar. We offer two versions: our original and a new seed oil–free option made with avocado oil for an even cleaner label. Retailers love the standout flavor, loyal customer base, and attractive packaging. Big Mama’s is shelf-stable, shipping-ready, and available in both retail bottles and 1-gallon foodservice jugs, ideal for grocers, restaurants, and caterers. Family-owned, garden-grown, and full of flavor—Big Mama’s Backyard Garden delivers real ingredients and real heart in every bottle.Read their story
