A couple of years ago I started working as a community organizer in the Greater Forest Lawn area. A large part of the role was helping people in the community find opportunities to connect.

I began to see that the nonprofits I was connecting my neighbors with needed a place to gain easy access to funding and community connections, outside of their immediate circle of influence.

The more I looked the more I began to see that businesses need the same thing. That made my purpose clear a free platform for any community minded organization to connect find support and to sell their products and services.

Now consumers can buy sustainable local products with peace of mind knowing where their goods are coming from.
