Quotable Moments From the Episode 

“Being able to achieve what we've achieved in the wholesale realm has been able to provide me with the experience that some goals are not impossible for us anymore. That is a tremendous mind shift that I think makes being in business so much more fun.” - Toa Green

“I think one of the best things we did was to find local [wholesalers] who understood what we were trying to do, who appreciated the local ingredients and the quality of what we were producing, and were also willing to partner with us as a business.” - Toa Green
