    Holy smokes! 🤯 We surpassed our first fundraising milestone by a landslide!! Thank you all SO MUCH for the overwhelming support! But we are not stopping here... I remember back in 2015, we set a goal to raise $54k on Kickstarter to fund our first commercial dehydrator and our custom-sized packaging. It took us five weeks to hit our goal, and it was a major turning point for Heather's Choice. Scaling up from tabletop dehydrators to the machines we use today was a BIG deal, and our smaller, more compact packaging set a new trend in the backpacking food category. Less packaging = less waste! Here we are almost nine years later, and our WeFunder campaign surpassed $100k in the first day of our public launch!! That's wild!! 🍾🥂 We are well on our way to hitting our target of $1.2M on WeFunder! I am beyond stoked to keep this momentum going, and to share every step of the journey with our community and our new investors! Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️ If you haven't yet, please share our campaign page with anyone and everyone you think might be interested! We have our first 100 investors, and we cannot wait to meet the next 100🕺 Onward and upward 🚀

    Shark Tank Round 2! We have some super exciting news to share! We're making another splash on Shark Tank this Saturday, June 22nd @ 8 pm ET/PT! If you missed our swim with the sharks the first time, we'd love for you to tune in and watch us this time around. Trust us, it's a juicy episode that's worth a watch! Our team is pumped for the opportunity to live through "The Shark Tank Effect" for a second time. With this re-air, we expect a lot of buzz and another HUGE wave of orders. It's time to stock up the fridge with shift beers! All that to say... if you've been craving some of our world-famous Grass-Fed Bison Chili or need a snack for all your summer adventures, now's the time to stock up! Starting Friday afternoon, our website will look a little bit different; we will only be offering a select handful of products via preorder. We will get back to business as usual after the weekend, but we are doing our best to set expectations for everyone; samplers ordered from our website over the weekend will likely have a long lead time. If you need anything for your summer trips, be sure to get your orders in ASAP! We wouldn't want you to miss your favorites because of the Shark Tank rush! As always, thank you for your unwavering support and for being part of this wild ride (emphasis on the wild)! Love, Heather P.S. If you don't see what you're looking for on our website, be sure to visit one of our trusted retail partners to grab your favorites. You’ll can find our store locator at the link in our bio

    So much for us to share from the past week! Heather's Choice recently completed the SKU Accelerator, which is essentially earning a PhD in CPG! To our surprise, we won the Fan Favorite! This is monumental for us as a brand that was born and raised in the outdoors. It's scary to make the leap from known waters into uncharted territory. It's fun to see that Heather's Choice does in fact have a place in the natural foods world! Thank you to EVERYONE who supported us during this 12 week program. It was nothing short of epic and we're excited to implement everything we learned!

    “For Heather’s Choice, the journey has been a tumultuous one. But in true underdog fashion, the continued markers of success, such as the company’s recent appearance on Shark Tank, yet again prove the age-old saying that ‘where there’s a will, there’s a way.’” https://lnkd.in/g9aEx6tS

    To say we’re stoked (and nervous) to be on national television is an understatement The truth is, Heather’s Choice has been nearly ten years in the making. There’s been an unbelievable amount of effort that has been poured into our product development, our team, our retail partnerships, our production facility, and so much more. Next week, approximately 4.2 million people will be introduced to Heather’s Choice likely for the first time. That is WILD! Here’s to another decade of epic adventures, good food, and memories that we as a team will never forget. Catch us this Friday, January 12th on @sharktankabc to see which meals and Packaroons the shark’s liked the best!
