The company was founded in September 2001 by Jennifer LaPointe, a stay-at-home mom. He mission was to encourage her family to eat healthy, anti-oxidant rich, locally grown food. Frequently visiting the local farmer’s markets due the week, the idea of starting a gourmet foodom company struck. It was during these weekly farmer markets visits, Jennifer discovered that the Northern Michigan region of Michigan she lived in grows some the best fruits and vegetables on the planet. In fact, her hometown of Bellaire, MI is located directly on the 45th parallel north. This is located halfway between the equator and the North Pole.

And winning 35+ national food awards go to deliver the promise on our world-class products. In addition to offering our gourmet food products, we also offer a complete line of condition-specific fruit-based supplements. For example,
