A bit more about us
We’re a female-founded success story. This alone–regardless of the industry–requires true grit, mettle, and perseverance. It’s not easy out there! And, culture-wise, we operate with an ethos that any idea is plausible until it isn’t. A wild flavor mix prepared with an all new application? We’re trying it. Changing up a logistical step to improve taste (and keep things clean), even if it means significant investment and time? We’re doing it. We march to the beat of our own drum–you could say it’s prideful, but, more so, it’s that we operate with conviction and we do. not. hesitate. The world can be an intimidating place. But we’re not phased.
Our Mission
We craft snacks that nourish the body and empower the spirit. We believe everyone deserves to eat the kind of delicious, nutritious and clean food we’re fortunate enough to share with our own families.
As a women-founded company, we are committed to raising up and supporting women and believe every woman can be an entrepreneur if given a hand. Because when you help provide education, opportunity and a path out of poverty to a woman, you lift her family and community with her.
