The Meet St. Louis Podcast is on a break this week due to the surging COVID-19 cases throughout the region. However, we have an episode that will hopefully help you with those New Year Resolutions!
More plants, more people, more often. That’s the goal of St. Louis’s newest food delivery company, Rootberry.
Launched this summer, Rootberry delivers plant-based meals to your doorstep, no subscription required. For Marc Connor, Co-Founder and President of Rootberry, that last part was critical. The company- whose food I can personally say is delicious- and I’m mostly a meat-eater- doesn’t want to force anyone to change the way they eat. They just want to make it easier for people to eat plant-based meals, however often they want.
Marc sat down with us to talk about why they believed they could build a company like this in St. Louis when so many others would try to start on the coasts. He also talked about the choice, and the fight, to do things a little slower and with a little more care, because they want to run their business based on ideals, and what it takes to make plant-based meals delicious and deliverable.
For First-time customers who are listeners of Meet St. Louis, there’s a special offer if you want to try Rootberry.
Through the end of August, if you enter the code MEETSTLOUIS at checkout, you’ll get 15% off your order.
And if you do, you may just meet Marc in person. Even though he’s the president, he still hits the road routinely, delivering Rootberry meals himself.
