Years ago, I’d spend 3 or 4 evenings a week right here, mesmerized. I watched this “mammoth” of a machine, the function so purely on volunteer spirit. I was just an observer then, wondering how a community driven model could have so much heart.
I didn’t know it then, but this very Coop would place our first ever retail order. That was the day the Pure Mitti retail journey truly began.
Business isn’t built on transactions; it’s built on trust and the simple act of giving.
Seeing our dish bars and totes in the hands of Brooklynites, in the same aisles I used to volunteer…. it’s a full-circle moment I’ll never forget. A heartfelt throwback to the place that turned my vision into a reality.
