High Brew Coffee was born from the adventure of a lifetime. Two boot-strapping entrepreneurs sold their company they spent 13 years building and sailed the high seas. Their need to stay alert through warm nights on rough waters brought them to cold-brewed coffee and they realized another great idea was in the works: an ice-cold, premium coffee that is convenient and portable.
We're a direct trade, ready-to-drink, cold brew coffee for those who do. 100% All Natural ready-to-drink Cold-Brewed coffee born in Austin, Texas. Made from 100% Certified Fair Trade Arabica Beans. Better Not Bitter™.

Founder Agatha Achindu and co-owner Camila Alves are two women from opposite ends of the world. Growing up as farmers’ daughters, they picked fresh fruit and veggies from their own backyards and their mothers made their family meals from scratch. This foundation of flavor and nutrition helped them grow up healthy, knowing what 'good' food tastes like. When they could not find this kind of food for THEIR children here in the U.S., they decided to make it themselves – and share it with other busy moms.
Yummy Spoonfuls® frozen organic toddler food is inspired by the freshly homemade food parents wish to feed their children but don’t have the time to make themselves. Our recipes use only organic ingredients you'd find in your kitchen, gently cooked just like you’d make at home. Immediately frozen to lock in nutrients, vitamins and amazing flavor means no sugars, preservatives, additives or artificial ingredients are ever added. Just real food in every yummy bite.
Yummy Spoonfuls offers the following gently cooked and flash-frozen recipes for optimal toddler nutrition:
Bowls: The combinations of veggies, grains and proteins in each bowl deliver the nutritional balance toddlers need in smaller portions and softer textures - providing the ideal transition to table food and beyond.
Big Bowls: These bigger bowls for bigger kids (ages 2+) feature a globally-inspired variety of flavors perfect for training adventurous palates and developing lifelong healthy eating habits.
Bites: Each serving provides toddlers with 9-17g of protein to keep them satisfied and stave off “hunger.”

Bitty is a new food company based on a revolutionary idea: Edible insects are a protein-rich food ripe for introduction into the American diet. They're already healthy, eco-friendly and tasty—it's just going to take some beautiful products and brilliant marketing to popularize them.
That's why we're focused on producing cricket flour and making delicious foods from it. We dry roast and mill crickets into a delicate, nutty-flavored powder, and use it as an ingredient in our protein-rich baked goods and energy bars.

Because Compromise Is Out of The Question!
With over fifteen years of experience as a CEO in the pet industry, our founder, Roger Morgan, experienced first-hand the negative impact of companies compromising product quality, putting profits before pets.
Because of that, he founded pawTree to serve pets and people first by delivering high-quality, uncompromising products through relationships based on trust, rather than big box stores.
We exceed industry standards by simply living up to our own.
Take the guesswork out of nourishing your furry friend with our customized nutrition plan.
