🤩 Photo drop from today’s Summit Fresh Mobile Market !!

We just had too much fun, so we had to share…again! 🫣🤭😎

Today was packed with hands-on learning and SO much fun! Our kids got to learn where our food comes from, how food is processed, and even some important financial awareness skills when it comes to buying food. Like making smart choices and understanding the value of what we purchase. 🛒💰

A HUGE thank you to our friends at Summit Fresh Mobile Market , Chef Dannika, United Way of Summit & Medina, PB&J Bites Berries & Blooms and City of Akron, Ohio - Mayor's Office for making this experience possible and bringing such valuable learning opportunities to our community! ❤️

We love when learning happens through real-life experiences, big smiles, and a whole lot of FUN! 🙌

Happy belated National Nonprofit Day! 🎉

We missed posting yesterday because… we were too busy being a nonprofit. 😂 Between making magic for our community and wearing about 17 different hats, our marketing person (who also does approximately 12 other jobs 😉) missed the memo!

So let’s celebrate now! ❤️

👇 Tag your favorite local nonprofits below and show them some love!

And yes… you can absolutely tag Akron Children's Museum as your favorite nonprofit, too. 😉🎉

Small team. Big heart. BIG impact. ❤️

It’s truly an honor to partner with Workshop of Wishes and serve as a host site for moments like this ✨

Providing a safe and clean environment where children can explore, play, and just be kids is so important to us. We’re grateful to have shared our space with Hope and her siblings, it looked like pure joy!

📣 PSA for parents: The back-to-school morning struggle is REAL.

Here are a few survival tips to get your kids (and yourself) back on schedule:

⏰ Start shifting bedtime earlier…yes, even if they argue like tiny lawyers
📵 Turn off screens at least 30 minutes before bed (we know…good luck)
🎒 Pack backpacks the night before = fewer morning meltdowns
🍳 Keep breakfast simple + ready to grab
🎶 Play music in the morning—somehow it makes everything feel less chaotic

And if all else fails…bribery. We won’t judge.

You’ve got this
