Holy cannoli how time has flown by!
Many of you have been with us since the very beginning - thank you so much for being part of this wild jammy ride.
I thought it would be fun to take a look back through the ~ INNA time machine ~ !

Picking figs from a neighbor’s tree (with their permission and ladder). INNA started as a hyper local foraged fruit jam project!

It was a fun project, and since I’m not very good with moderation, I got a lot of jars and I filled them up.

And folks were into it! I thought, hey, this could be more than just a totally zany hobby. It could be a real thing!

So I went for it! I rented space in a tiny shared commercial kitchen with a SINGLE burner and worked nights. I got a tricycle for making deliveries (yes I delivered to San Francisco and took that beast of a trike on BART - it just barely fit in the elevator). I sourced fruit from organic farmers and kept everything single varietal, and made as much jam as I could.

The jams we made in the summer of 2010 were super popular! And sold out way too fast. We needed to make way more jam, so we moved to a bigger shared kitchen (still working nights).

We bought a lot of organic fruit,
we cooked a lot of jam,
we filled a lot of jars,
we got a lot of help,
We quadrupled production.
It was the hardest year of my life.
