Hey everybody this is the third installment of our series called - Brands of The Simple Grocer - where we dig deep into the stories, products, and humans behind the brands you can find when shopping The Simple Grocer
Quick thanks to Lynna with The Simple Grocer and Taylor with Root and Roam Creative Studio...without them I am pretty sure this series would have never made it from idea to podcast and much more!
