About
Now a proud Summit County local business. The dream was inspired in 2020 upon a visit to see my family in Minnesota. The first jar of Pines Peanut Butter was gifted to me on Christmas morning by a special person. It didn’t taste that great but I didn’t care. It was everything I needed to get started.
While living in Colorado as a school teacher I decided to bring my ideas and ambitions to my principal, and 5th-grade team. They thought I was nuts but nonetheless, they supported me. The first jar was made on January 26th of 2020. I quickly found that I liked making nut butter, but even more so I loved giving it to others. The first 1,000 or so jars were made all with handwritten labels. It has been a roller coaster ride journey to get where I am but I think that’s the beauty of life.
