  1. I am going to have Kishonna look up pricing on these products. Let me know if you have contacts.
    I have added more Everfresh products.
    I think the prepared goods can be a good revenue stream for you Mo, if interested.
    Let me know i want to start putting stuff in the store soon, even if just a few samples to get feedback.
    I think in the newsletter I want to feature a different michigan product.

  2. I am happy to continue contributing to the development and design of what these products will be, and we need to focus in a meeting on creating a system for production and distribution and store design with potential new products.
