I want our company to leave a legacy of learning to find the balance between what's good and what's good for you.
From Nell Newman
I think all family businesses are difficult and fraught with problems because you have that family relationship to get over. But my dad has been so supportive, we've managed to work around that.
After getting recognized in public from my picture on our pretzel bag, I can understand not wanting to be in the public eye. It has given me a public persona I had always avoided as a child. I do it because it's for a good cause.
Basically, what we've done is, every year we take half the money and allow people who've helped us in the industry to give it away. One year, the ladies who put the pretzel bags in the boxes got to give it away.
It didn't occur to me to go into something that didn't have an ethical return for me.
It's become more readily apparent that we need to be growing our own food and growing more things organically.
Education is very important, and the botanical garden is the place to do that. I grew up in a semi-rural area and learned from that being my playground.
My dad hates doing PR, so I volunteered to do this for him.
I used to tell people my father was a plumber, because that would mean we had a normal life.
I spent my whole life avoiding the public eye. At these food shows, I'm open quarry again.
