Love locally made food items but don’t have time to get to every farmers’ market or gift shop to pick them up?
Local website yumzar.com is the solution.
The website is selling local artisan goods, such as Sara’s Tipsy Pies, Bare Honey, Bliss Granola, Butcher and the Boar sausages, Curt’s Salsa and more.
The items are packaged and shipped anywhere in the country, so they make great gifts for foodie friends in other states.
In order to grow the business, the founders have started a Kickstarter campaign. They will use the money to make videos about the artisan businesses whose products they feature and to expand their gift basket collection. They are offering a nice array of rewards, including gift baskets of Minnesota-made goods.
