Meet Kamaal Jarrett from Hillside Harvest!
So, here's the scoop: Mayuur Naturals has a cheeky little sister food brand called Pariva. We decided to debut with Whole Foods right when the world decided to hit pause for a pandemic. Talk about timing! I had zero clue what I was doing. Picture this: me, who had only made small portions to feed my own family, suddenly making enough jars to feed an army. Overwhelming? Understatement of the century. And hiring help? Forget about it. On that first day of production, I was so lost I almost needed a map and a compass.
What saved my bacon was a ragtag group of fellow small food biz founders. We were all floundering in the same leaky boat, just trying to stay afloat. They dropped everything to lend a hand. We optimistically thought we'd wrap it up in a day. Ha! Three days later, they were still showing up like the heroes they are. Kamaal Jarrett was one of those lifesavers, and from that day on, we formed a food family tighter than a jar lid.
Kamaal's products? They're a flavor explosion! The first time I tasted his sauces, it was love at first bite. Back in the day, I was all about the fiery, breath-stealing hot sauces. But as my taste buds matured, flavor took the front seat. Hillsides sauces are bursting with flavor, and you can actually taste the fruits and veggies. Plus, their marinades are so easy, you can't mess them up!
Hillside Harvest
Hillside Harvest is all about blending different cultures. It started in Cypress Hall, a little town in the Red Hills of Kingston, Jamaica, and grew up in Milton, Massachusetts, near the Blue Hills. The founder, Kamaal Jarrett, learned to love his Caribbean roots while also embracing his New England background. Now, Hillside Harvest wants to show this mix through tasty products that bring cultures together in easy and fun ways.
Hillside Harvest makes Caribbean-inspired sauces and condiments, focusing on creating exciting flavors using just a few natural ingredients. At Hillside Harvest, they're all about making products that make every meal better and encourage you to try new ways to enjoy your favorite foods.
