Just a quick update on Pizza Hippo dream. It's going to happen!
As of April 3rd, our little project on Kickstarter.com has been funded to 90% of our minimum goal of $5000. Yes, we probably need more than $5K in all honesty, and yes, we may end up raising more than that, but either way, we'll have the baseline capital to at least get this project off the ground. Exciting!
It's nice that 51 people so far believe I'm smart enough to make this dream into a reality, and have, on average, invested $87 per person. Hopefully more folks, specifically more local folks, will get in on the action, pre-buy some Vermont Organic Pizza and help us crush our minimum goal. Perhaps our upcoming press piece in The Commons will push us over the edge...stay tuned Vermont.
Hey Brattleboro! It's official!!! Pizza Hippo has been accepted by a jury of our peers to sling organic goodness at the Brattleboro Farmer's Market this summer. We'll be there on Wednesdays starting in May. It was an awesome feeling to hear Martha, membership director, complement our pizza so warmly and welcome Pizza Hippo to Brattleboro. Hopefully we'll hear more of the same from the other market's we're still waiting to hear from...come on y'all, the Pizza Hippo Pizza Wagon is nearly complete and ready to roll!
We also wanted to mention a strategic partnership in the works with Jamaica Cottage Shop. Still working on the terms, but it feels like we should end up with a great structure for the Kindle Farm Stand location. Hope we can work this deal out and keep it classy, Vermont.
That's all for now...sweet dreams.
Love,
Mr. Hippopotamus
