Green Sprouts: Owned and operated by a mother and daughter, Green Sprouts makes products designed from the baby’s perspective that minimize environmental impact and support natural parenting. Green Sprouts products are PVC- and BPA-free, packaged in 100% recyclable materials and printed with vegetable-based inks. Their goal is to use more non-plastic materials and encourage their customers to choose reusable in their purchases. From their Assorted Bottles and Non-Spill Assorted Sippy Cups to the Cool Ring Teether and more, check them out for all your baby needs!
Legado Whiskey: Local to Sacramento, Legado was founded by four women entrepreneurs who wanted to create a straight rye whiskey that reclaimed traditions old and new. Serve it on the rocks or neat. Keep it classic with an Old-Fashioned or spice it up with a Hot Toddy. Cool off with an adults-only root beer float—just pour River City Root Beer into an ice tray, and once frozen, blend with Legado Whiskey and top off with a scoop of Fiorello’s Artisan Vanilla Bean Gelato for a wonderfully local treat!
Star Anise Foods: Local to San Francisco, Star Anise Foods was founded by two friends who wanted to share their authentic family traditions with a community craving a healthy bowl of pho noodles. They use only the most wholesome, non-GMO ingredients—no stabilizers, no fillers and no preservatives. Try Creamy Coconut, Garlic or Peanut Vietnamese Pho Noodles and savor the local goodness!
