Carrie Ermence
CEO & FOUNDER, LONE STAR ROOTS

With a passion for community and a commitment to quality, Carrie has built Lone Star Roots into a brand that allows Texans and Texas enthusiasts to carry a piece of the Lone Star State with them wherever they go.

Lone Star Roots embodies this connection, offering products that reflect Texas pride while supporting local, state, and national small businesses.
Lone Star Roots is proud to collaborate with organizations such as Go Texan, the Texas Legends, South Austin Gallery, El Arroyo, and the Frisco Chamber of Commerce, reflecting Carrie’s dedication to fostering partnerships that enrich the community.

Community Commitment
The Badge of Texas Pride!®
Our logo, featuring a heart over Texas—specifically the Dallas-Fort Worth area—symbolizes our love for Texas and pays tribute to our late father, who found joy in this state. Heart disease prevention is important to us, and we donate a portion of our sales to the American Heart Association in his memory.
Thank you for being part of our journey. No matter where home is, you can always carry a piece of Texas with you.
