Feed & Seed Co.
Opens in Greenville

Posted by: | Posted on: June 1, 2022

Feed & Seed Co. recently opened in West Greenville. Partnering with local farmers, wholesalers, and other organizations, Feed & Seed Co. has developed networks and programs designed to help close the gaps in the process that gets food from local farms to the community. They also opened the Food Innovation Hub, which serves as a collaborative facility for farm, food, and education in the Upstate. Designed as a multi-purpose facility to support our local farmers and the community, it’s a space that provides food growers and makers the infrastructure and support systems needed for success.

Besides the Green Market & Café (where you can get groceries and a bite to eat), they also have a processing area for farmers to process their harvest, a commercial kitchen that can be rented out, a 90-seat event room that is available to rent for $125 (for 3 hours,) several commercial dehydrators, and 5,000 square feet of flash freezers that farmers can lease out.

According to Mary Hipp, Feed & Seed Co. Board Chair, “The mission of feed and seed is to make fresh food affordable to all of South Carolina, but it is also a wraparound organization, from economic support for the farmers by creating a vibrant market for them; all the way to making food accessible to communities that don’t have it and don’t have access. Then, making it affordable at the same time by keeping it a local food location and fresh; it has more nutrition because it’s right here in our backyard.”

Feed & Seed is located at 701 Easley Bridge Rd., Ste. 6010, Greenville. (Entrance off of 2nd Ave.). For more information, call 864-412-4720 or visit FeedAndSeedSC.com. Business and Café hours are listed on their website.


New Boomhi
Technology Socks

Posted by: | Posted on: June 1, 2022

BJ Evans of Standing on 2 Feet is excited about a new entry in her wearable neurotech business. They are a type of elevated mind technology sock called Boomhi. Known as Voxx HPT, a pattern is specially woven into each of their wellness and performance products. According to the website, contact with it triggers a neural response in the brainstem that helps manage pain, as well as improve mobility and balance. The effect is instant, ranging from improved balance, mobility and pain management to better energy level and recovery process, and ultimately a happier, healthier life.

Evans describes them as affordable, attractive, and comfy. But there’s much more to this sock than meets the eye. “Some of my clients have told me they experience a sense of joy, optimism and happiness when they put on a pair of our new Boomhi wearable technology socks,” she says. “I’m also excited because they are made of 100 percent recycled water bottles, so it’s a win-win to recycle, repurpose, and restore for the environment.” “There is a QR code to see where trees are planted for every Bhoomi purchase.”

For more information on all categories of wearable neurotech products, call 864-421-5334, or visit StandingOn2Feet@voxxlife.com.
