    Dec 10 2021
    When Leslie Woodward was a young girl, a trip to a grocery store prompted a lifelong interest in food and nutrition - which became the idea for a venture that would become a reality. Leslie saw that there was almost no healthy food available with most of it packed with fillers, preservatives and ingredients that are hard even to pronounce. This prompted her vision to create fresh, healthy alternative milks which is sourced from local farmers and producers. She joins us on Let’s Connect For Good to tell us about her journey creating Edenesque. We’re also joined by special guest food scientist Dr. Taylor Wallace for a conversation about food you’ve never heard before. We discuss why your health is a clear reflection of the food you eat, the importance of sourcing ingredients wisely, the process of setting up a profitable business that also focuses on empowering the community, and the future of sustainability and environment-friendly initiatives among businesses. What ideas will Leslie and Dr. Taylor come up with as they look into how they could work together?
