Two of our co-founders, Nona Yehia and Caroline Croft Estay, (plus a few of our wonderful employees) were featured on the Today Show on Monday, March 8, 2021 in honor of International Women’s Day. View the clip here.
With Thanksgiving just one week away, we celebrated with our own Friendsgiving. Gathering around food is kind of our thing, so you best believe we love this kind of Holiday. Together we shared delicious home cooked foods and so much gratitude for the humans that make up this incredible company.

We had a blast in Maine meeting new and old friends, connecting on our love for foods, economic inclusion and innovation. As National Disability Employment Awareness Month comes to an end, we are reminded that every human has the right to meaningful work. Thank you to everyone who participated in last week’s Open House and NDEAM event. Here is a little recap of the week with special guest Jackson’s Biggest Rockstar!

Come with us as we explore Peaks Island, off the coast of the great state of Maine! We are loving our summers on the ocean and excited for the farm to serve the communities that surround it. We are waiting patiently but also don`t want summer to end.
