Ending the year with one hell of a bang ✨️ 3rd nationwide product launch into
This one was WAY more personal. This past August, we were at a natural health food tradeshow in Denver. We had an opportunity to do an in person Pitch Slam for Sprouts. Think Shark Tank but instead of winning cash the winner gets shelf placement on every shelf in a Sprouts store across the country totaling over 480 stores. We gave it our all. How we started the company long ago, Farmers Markets, Gift Retail, grocery wholesale etc.
I spoke about my background, my education in Plant Medicine, but I then spoke about my culture. This is something I kept under wraps for a long time. It was something I guarded + protected. It was not something to be exploited + monetized. I've seen that happen too many times in the industry + it was never something I would be a part of. I wanted to create a solid brand that was steeped in authenticity + integrity. The products are high quality. Certified Organic. Eco - conscious packaging. Stunningly beautiful. Every product I created was forged by own healing journey. The beginning stages of my life were so messy + volatile. Those that know - know 💔. I didn't know all those painful experiences were going to help me later in life. Where i would alchemize my pain into purpose. That i would be a light to shine for others who are still in the dark. That's what our products are made of. Resilience, healing, depth + beauty with a deep respect to plants/nature. To me this is exactly how I want our culture to be exemplified. The Iroquois flag is on every single Tea Tube ✨️ as it should be.
There are only 12 Certified Organic Food Manufacturing facilities on Native American land in the country. There's only 1 that does Tea or what I believe to be Medicine Making. That is our Facility at Moon in Akwesasne ✨️
During the pitch, I let them know we are a very under represented community in the CPG space. I was hoping to change that. We are capable of scaling + growing.
Happy to say we won the whole pitch slam. On the spot we were offered national placement. JAN 26 LAUNCH 🙌
Huge shout out to the team of warriors who made these ✨️
