• Started as a mathematics student at Auburn University researching food access
• Currently offers over 100 products including eggs, milk, meat, vegetables, honey, flowers, and more
• Weekly delivery system where orders are placed by Thursday noon and delivered Saturday
• Provides transparency about farming practices and direct farmer-to-consumer relationships
• Challenging misconceptions that local food is necessarily expensive or always certified organic
• Building infrastructure to fix the "broken" local food system by connecting farmers with consumers
• Recently launched CSA subscription program for regular grocery essentials
