About Us

Our Story (So Far!)

Back in March 2025, a dad, a son, and one very hardworking Harvest Right freeze dryer teamed up in Jacksonville with a simple question: what happens if you freeze-dry everything? Turns out Skittles puff up like little clouds, strawberries get shatter-crunchy, and taffy turns into something totally new.

We started out selling small batches at local markets, and it snowballed from there. We’ve popped up at Memorial Day RiverFest in Green Cove Springs, Blanding Billiards, and Our Third Place Neighborhood Market, and at night markets at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm, where yes, we brought freeze-dried alligators. 🐊 Along the way we added sour Flavored Gushies (our one not-freeze-dried treat) and learned that when the kiwi runs out, people notice.

Every batch is still made by us, a few trays at a time. Come find us at a market, say hi, and try a sample. Fair warning: they’re hard to stop eating.
