Nutmegs Own Munchies begins

It's been a while since I found a letter about who I can be that I wrote to myself for a school project. Maybe 10 years ago or more. Essentially, I told myself not to give up when it gets hard.
But I've since misplaced that letter.  This is the only part I remember most while working on creating a new food idea.

Many people would complain that the zucchini would go bad, so I started dehydrating it and jarred it for anyone who needed some assistance with their zucchini “problem.” 

Fruit Flats 

Kale 🥬 flat 

Drying Kiwi

Fruit flat scraps

An assortment of flats from Nutmeg’s Organic Munchies 

4oz Bags of Nutmeg’s Organic Munchies 

The samples for Glenwood Incubator open house at the farmers market 

When there is too much zucchini I would dry it for pasta

Drying organic strawberries that were surplus from D2D Organics

Preparing a flat to be made from  Organic berries with a banana for texture 

I let this project die. It was just going to be unbelievably costly to even get a business going. But it was fun with the 4oz bags of dried organic fruit and the fruit flats made of only strawberry or raspberry or kale and then a banana. No apple as I notices the fruit roll ups everywhere used apple as their 1st ingredient. I even have a great dehydrator. Maybe I should have named it. It might have helped me to stick to this.

I did go through a small incubator program here in Chicago and got my food handlers license and did some sampling at the Glenwood farmers market.

So, took a while but today I posted some pics and who knows maybe I will name my dehydrator.
For now it’s stored away wait for more food to be dehydrated.
