hatched in 2016...
we watched an old episode of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations Haiti which highlighted citizens left displaced and with a limited food supply in the wake of the catastrophic 2010 Haiti earthquake. We thought, “what food source can provide protein building blocks, but be grown and harvested using very limited to no natural resources such as water and land?” After stumbling upon the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, Rome 2013 Report on Insects as Food and Feed, we were sold and ordered our first 10,000 yellow mealworms to experiment with as a crop and food source.
We knew Westerners would find it gross! So our popular chocolate chip cookie was born. After rave reviews, we became obsessed with making the bugs into a protein powder that could be put into everyday foods people were already familiar with such as snacks, soups, pasta, salads, smoothies and much, much more!
Today, our mission is to produce, feature and share the amazing versatility and high-quality of insect protein as a food, feed, and fertilizer at fair prices while exceeding customers’ expectations.
A lot has happened since we sold our first chocolate chip cookie with grub protein in 2017. Along with our farm start-up, we help create a market for insect-based foods to educate people on the nutritional qualities of insects and how to incorporate them into their everyday diets. We also consult farms on managing insect growth or waste management farms to help support themselves financially while fighting nutrition deficiency.
So please join us in our mission in producing and providing access to high-quality insect protein as a food, feed, and fertilizer.
Have a sustainable day!
