Rachel Geicke started Snow Monkey during her Boston University undergrad in 2016. As a college athlete with multiple food allergies, traditional ice cream defied her nutritional and dietary needs. But she was in an unhealthy relationship with ice cream and would indulge regardless. Upon recognizing that she wasn’t the only one in this unhealthy relationship, Rachel set out to create a delicious and nutritious alternative. Rachel took a bunch of superfoods, fruits and seeds, turned it into a frozen superfood blend fit for an athlete and called it Snow Monkey. Snow Monkey is a vegan, paleo ice treat that is free of all major allergens and has 21 grams of protein per pint.  Packed with protein, antioxidants and fiber, it's smooth like ice cream with flavors to die for!

Founded in 2017, Spa Girl Cocktails evolved from the famed parties hosted by founder Karen Haines and her husband at their renowned Palm Springs home. At every one of these soirees, Karen would concoct one-of-a-kind specialty martinis for her guests—an art mostly abandoned due to the time and effort it takes to hand-shake drink after drink. Recognizing an opportunity to restore the martini to its rightful place as an iconic American aperitif that everyone can easily enjoy at home, Karen used her decades of experience in the hospitality industry to create Spa Girl Cocktails.

Spa Girl Cocktails are 100% plant-based, vodka-crafted cocktails made simple. They distill a high-quality, premium vodka and then masterfully infuse all-natural flavors, allowing you to sip and serve on the rocks or, better yet, enhance with a few healthy ingredients you love.

Madison & White

Madison and White was founded by Kamela Hurley at the start of 2015. After a disaster DIY hair experiment, she was at a local beauty supply store where she found satin pillowcases for sale. One touch of the cheap satin pillowcases and she knew she could do better.  On impulse, she began research on textiles, benefits, and created samples based on that research. After just one night of sleep on her self-made pillowcases, she couldn't believe the difference. Her morning hair wasn't messy, she didn't have sleep wrinkles, and her skin and hair felt more hydrated. She was so amazed by the difference that she started making pillowcases for all the ladies in her family. Her family started talking and sharing with their friends, order started flying in on Etsy, and thus Madison & White was born.

Lavva

On a recovery journey from advanced-stage cancer,  CEO and founder of Lavva, Elizabeth Fisher, built her diet around nourishing, high-fat foods. That’s when Liz discovered the Pili nut. Grown in volcanic soil in Southeast Asia, Pili has the highest vitamin E and magnesium of any nut. Blown away by its rich, buttery flavor, Liz began blending Pili nuts with coconut milk. The result was unlike anything she’d ever tasted before; spoonably thick, deliciously rich. Over the next three years, Liz worked on perfecting the recipe. Instead of taking industry shortcuts like gums, coloring agents, artificial flavors, or sugar—she forged her own path. She discovered young plantains added a beautiful texture and hint of natural sweetness. And vegan probiotics added the perfect tartness.

Today, Liz is healthy and Lavva is alive for all to enjoy. Lavva pili nut yogurt is a rich, creamy blend of Pili nuts, coconut and plantains. With zero added sugar, prebiotics and 50 billion probiotics, what happens inside this cup is good for what happens inside of you.
