Food brings people together

After being involved in various community safety projects, Sheryl realised that if you want to build real community, then you need to bring people together, and what better way of doing so than through food.

It’s about changing the food system. We are shortening the supply chain between organic farmers and consumers.

Trajectory of growth

Four years into the business Sheryl decided to partner with accounting firm MGI Bass Gordon and Sue van der Valk, which changed things significantly. Through Xero Sheryl got access to real-time information, which has made her business more efficient while freeing up her time.
