Follow a former midwest special education teacher's journey into the unknown world of entrepreneurship, where she leaves the classroom to learn the ins and outs to brewing kombucha commercially with the goal to open an inclusive kombucha taproom in her community, which celebrates neurodiversity and provides job training and employment opportunities to adults with disabilities.
This is her verbal journal of all she encounters with an open invitation to connect with fellow brewers, teachers, and entrepreneurs alike!

Are We Growing Too Fast?
A messy verbal journey entry expressing my thoughts on a question swirling through my head during this season, which is, "Are we growing too fast?" Drinking game option: One shot of kombucha every time I reference, "flying by the seat of my pants."
*EDIT: I misspoke on the origin of Zappa Hops (and even said "Zappos once, yikes). Zappa™ is a native, North American, Humulus lupulus variety, neomexicanus, recovered from the wild in New Mexico and named after counterculture icon Frank Zappa. :)
Hops used in March Kombucha Hops series: Simcoe, Mosaic, Citra, and Zappa Hops
Let's connect! I would love to "meet" you!
