Homesweet Homegrown was started by Robyn Jasko, founder of Grow Indie, and author of Homesweet Homegrown: How to Grow, Make and Store your Own Food No Matter Where You Live, and her husband and partner in crime, Paul David, and her 8 month old son, Ajax. All natural, vegan and GMO-free, Homesweet Homegrown is the first hot sauce to use chia seeds as a natural thickener and preservative without the use of gums. All of the peppers in Homesweet Homegrown sauces are grown without the use of pesticides in nearby Kutztown, PA. and feature organic ingredients. They recently partnered with Victory Brewing Company to include Victory Storm King Stout in their line of Punch Drunk Sauce. More about us: In 2012, Robyn and her husband Paul, along with her Illustrator Jenn Biggs (also of Philly) trekked around the country via Amtrak for an cross country book tour but before they left, Robyn planted way too many pepper plants. They returned to a bumper crop, all begging to be made into hot sauce. So they started making hot sauce and selling it along with Robyn's book at farmer's markets and local events.  It sold out each time, so in Spring of 2013, Robyn posted another kickstarted project to raise $850 for her crop of pepper plants, and the project took off, raising more than $53,000 to become the highest selling hot sauce in Kickstarter history.On Today’s show Robyn will share:- What’s Your Personal Mission Statement Our main mission is to promote homegrown, non-gmo food, and help empower people everywhere to eat better and to vote with their dollar. - Biggest Business Mistake Listening to all the people who told me what I wanted to do couldn’t be done. - How Do You Handle Business Stress and Uncertainty Gardening! And, running---- Being outside in the fresh air, even just for 10 minutes--- changes your perspective and can turn any situation around. - Greatest Business Decision That Changed Everything Deciding to stick with organic ingredients----After several bottlers told me it wasn’t possible, I ended up sourcing my own organic ingredients and changed the system for the better. Now, my bottler is looking into organics for their other lines. The chain reactions of our positive perseverance always amazes and inspires me. - Best Book For The Entrepreneurial Mindset This changes all the time, but right now, my favorite is Get Big Fast and Do More Good: Start Your Business, Make It Huge, and Change the World - Plus much more...
