April ushers in the familiar flavors of rebirth. Citrus and florals are ever-present. Rainy days may be inconvenient but they do bring on nutrient rich soil to help grow our the very vegetative spread we have this month – a perfect culmination for Earth Day. It’s also a busy month for your accountant (and maybe you!) for those tax filings, so any late-night stimulation is also fair game.

We also celebrate special days such as National Financial Awareness Day where we push affordable snacks. So if your products are budget-friendly (or you are A/B testing SRP), and/or you have joined forces with a sister (even if from another mother), in your founder story, we want to hear from you.
