To our wonderful community of Family, Friends, and Eaters:
The beginning of May starts Happy Belly 's 6th year in business and it looks to be a time of EXPANSIVE CHANGE for us.
We have started to dream differently about our future.
Over the past few months, we have taken an honest look what we do. We see the potency behind our creations, we know value of our voice, and we are ready to amplify our reach!
Week after week, you tell us your power stories. You show us where Happy Belly fits along your path toward wellness and healing. You remind us why we are doing this and you help us maintain our roots (our story is your story!). We are a part of your journey and the weekly validation is invaluable. We are humbled and grateful and on-our-knees thankful that you like us enough to keep us in business!
With all of that said, we are coming to you to ask for ASSISTANCE in bringing our NEW VISION to ground.
We have been given a ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME opportunity to continue the work that our friends, Kelly and Sarah, started with Tin Can Juicery. We are purchasing their 1958 Detroiter camper and turning it into an official-yet-mobile spot for Happy Belly.
The plan is to have baked goods, cold pressed juices, tonics, toasts, belly bowls, plate lunch, and goods for purchase. Everything will be gluten free. Everything will be vegan. Things will be sourced with seasonality in mind. We will continue our strong relationships with other local food producers (The Farm at Miller's Crossing, Atina Foods, Hawthorne Valley, Good Fight Herb Co, Whistle Down Farm, Don Baker Farm, Blue Star, Whispering Willow Farm, Sparrowbush Farm, etc) by highlighting their goods in our goods. We're hoping to get it up-and-running by the end of May and we're hoping that you can join us on that journey.
The funds will go toward equipment (juicer, blender, hot plate, etc), supplies (bottles, plates, bowls, utensils,etc), and raw ingredients (vegetable, fruit, herbs, flowers, dry goods, ferments, etc).
We have been creating healthy, beautiful, and safe food for our pocket communities for long enough to know our real value. We have been working with so many local businesses, establishing cooperative and collaborative relationships that strengthen our economy and broaden our reach. We're looking at this new step as putting down deeper roots in Hudson and Columbia County. We really hope that you lend us a hand in reaching our goal.
Help us manifest something strong, visionary, and vibrant. Help us create something different. Help us make this space our own. Help us grow!
With all the love, admiration, and wild abandon in the world!
Monica Brandon Bea and Happy Belly
