Testimonials

“Local. Delicious. Making a difference. Delicious. People helping other people. Oh, and did I mention how great it tastes?”
“...the very best granola I've ever had. It's a bonus that they have this great mission."– SOS, Boston
“This strikes me as the very sort of venture that both the left and the right can support with equal enthusiasm... a way to welcome and support refugees (an almost sacred obligation), and... that greatest American entity of all: the "small business"! JH, New Haven
“You all rock! I look forward to my granola month and usually sample it the day it arrives! I’ve never been disappointed! I love the stories and the photos and learning about your staff. This is the best $25 I spend every month. Thanks so much, and keep up the great work. Mary, Anchorage AK

Your job is to listen

One important moment from that conference: I was in a breakout session led by a Somali-American woman and former refugee, I wish I remember her name, who was doing human rights and advocacy work. The time slot must have been up against some big name because only a couple of us were there.  I probably asked for teaching advice. We were specifically talking about older refugee women who spoke no English. She gave me a directive: "Your job is to listen."
