Meet Glenda and Rory Hart, Co-Founders of the Canadian Birch Company. They create products from organic birch sap, tapping living trees, and crafting the world’s finest pure birch syrup. So delicious in fact that they spun it into an award-winning gourmet collection – named by the San Francisco Business Times as “new trend to watch”, been awarded Harvest of Excellence Innovative company of the year, and named as Chatelaine Magazine’s Product of the Year.
In this episode, Host Margaux Miller taps into the ins and outs of the birch syrup industry, inquiring into dealing with food products and getting into retailers, and garners advice for working with programs like the Scotiabank Women Initiative.
