Today’s the big day. 20 years ago today we became a registered company. I clearly remember our first day at the Charlottesville City Market. The take was $35. An inauspicious beginning (and Richard was ready to pack it in and return to electrical contracting) to something that would grow bigger than we had hoped and last longer than we could have imagined.
So here we are 20 years on, nearly 7 million units of salsa and dips, along with tens of thousands of pounds of fresh tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, ginger and turmeric, and hundreds of dozens of rainbow eggs sold, and we are forever grateful to all of you, our customers and retailers, for your continued support throughout the years.
We couldn’t have done it without your fierce support of local food and small family farms and we never for one minute forget that y’all are the reason we wake up and get to do what we love each and every day.
Thank you.
Richard and Wendy
