Sharing is caring â and itâs contagious (in the best way).
Weâre so grateful to founders like Genna from Silver Swallow and Maju from Green Sun Foods for sharing their incredible gifts with us at CHFA NOW.
When founders generously share their passion and their products, it doesnât stop with us â it gives us the chance to pass that joy along. And really, the best gifts are the ones that are fully consumed, savoured, and talked about long after theyâre gone.
These brands will definitely be the talk of the party tonight as we gather with friends for dinner. đ„đ
