In 2024, I embarked on the incredible journey of thru hiking the Appalachian Trail, from Georgia to Maine. It was a pretty unique experience to spend 6 months carrying my entire life on my back. It took me some time to feel out the delicate balance between carrying enough supplies to get myself between towns, but not carrying so much that I bogged myself down with the weight of it all. At every trail stop, I spent a lot of time figuring out my resupply – as hikers often say, there is no such thing as a zero-mile day! The effort I put in was worthwhile and there were many trail angels who helped me get to stores near the trail, but I couldn't help thinking there must be a simpler way to handle resupply.

 

This adventure inspired me to give back to the hiking community by creating a smoother resupply process for others. I am thrilled to offer more convenient, healthier, and individually tailored food options to support hikers on their own journeys.
