Our story begins with a suitcase full of Perogies and Saskatoon Berry Pie to fill our homesick hearts (and stomachs) while we lived away from our Prairie home in New Mexico. Although we developed a love for Margaritas and Mariachi Bands, we yearned for the taste and feel of home.
We have a very typical story in that we both grew up in Saskatchewan small towns, and we come from farming backgrounds. We married and started our family very young, and now we are young(ish) grandparents, and so our story continues.
We have always lived in Saskatchewan except for 9 years we spent in Carlsbad, New Mexico. While we enjoyed living there immensely, it was always a treat when visitors would bring us some of our Prairie favourites to share with friends!
Our dream is to bring together our Prairie Favourites and deliver them right to your home. Whether you or a loved one have moved away and long for a prairie care package, or you're just dang curious, we're here for you! We are excited to support local Prairie entrepreneurs from Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba, and we know you will enjoy their products!
Each of our boxes will include stories of our makers as it is within these stories that we find the connections that mean the most.
