Our Story

​

I was born and raised in Jamaica till the age of 15 when my parents migrated to the US.

Food has always been a major influence in our family. My mom has also been a huge gardener. My cultural background and the interests of my parents have influenced my life as well. 

I have been married to my high school sweetheart for 25 yrs, a mother of 5 beautiful children. I have been a nurse for 20 yrs and love caring for my patients. I enjoy cooking and entertaining family and friends. I love gardening, the satisfaction of watching something you plant and nurture grow and produce fruit is very satisfying. I use my herbs and vegetables in my cooking every day. I have been interested in sewing as long as I can remember. I have made some clothes for myself and also enjoy working on household projects.

I started making hot sauce as a result of my son Nygel growing hot peppers and his own hot sauce. He stopped making the hot sauce and had a bunch of peppers left over. The pepper plants were still producing. So I adopted the plants and used the peppers to make some hot sauce and loved it. I shared it with some friends and family and they loved it as well.

I decided to start selling it to them and the rest is history. 

I use the herbs I grow along with the peppers to make the hot sauce.
