Small Business Saturday always makes me so proud of every small business owner out there going for it! Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve been just a little different. I’ve loved business and people since I could walk. My parents both worked so hard and that was a gift to my little personality and lemonade stand dreams.
Fast forward to when Mike & I started Rustic Joyful Food: We had a big dream in our heart and a penny in our pocket. We are proud to be a small business serving up authentic, quality products that are made with love & JOY!
Every cookbook we have published has been tested, written and photographed by Mike & myself. Our wine collection, French for Water has been carefully crafted in Washington State – our home state– in hopes of bringing it your table wherever you are.
I think little Danielle sitting at her lemonade stand would be proud.
3 Things That Happen When You Shop Small:
WHEN YOU SHOP SMALL, YOU’RE CREATING JOBS
Not only are you supporting Mike and I, but this year we hired our FIRST employee for Rustic Joyful Foods digital marketing!
We’ve also partnered with RM WINES — a local, family owned Washington winery who helped us launch our beautiful wines, French for Water. This is so much bigger than a purchase, it’s about purpose.
WHEN YOU SHOP SMALL, YOU’RE ENCOURAGING ENTREPRENEURSHIP
I’m still that little girl selling lemonade all these years later. When you shop small, you’re fueling the dreams of others that have a passion in their hearts! You’re not just another sale to them, you’re the spark keeping them going!
WHEN YOU SHOP SMALL, WE DO A LITTLE DANCE!
We’re messy, we’re a little all over the place, but mostly WE’RE JOYFUL! So yes, when you shop small… I might do a little dance or two 😉
