started in 1989 and now grown to selling their nourishing products in 1,000 stores around the nation. Can't beat their great 12-bean bags for soup, chilis, baking goods, coffees, teas etc. It is a 501 C3 whose mission is to change women's lives who are chronically unemployed to be self sufficient and break the cycle of poverty for families. If you are interested go on line at Women's Bean Project to order or see if they are being sold at a store near you. Each bag of beans has a note from the woman who did the work.
