Have you heard of the Pacific Crest Trail? It’s a hiking trail, that stretches across the entire country, from Canada to Mexico. (Maybe you’ve heard of it from the movie Wild with Reese Witherspoon.) Angela Boone aka Crusher, contacted BumbleBar after deciding to hike the PCT by herself. We were excited to support her journey and supplied her with an assortment of BumbleBars to keep her mind and body full of energy while she tackles the 2,650-mile trail!

1. La Croix Sparkling Water – These flavored sparkling waters are all the rage right now. If you haven’t had one yet, we highly recommend them!

All we have to say is, yum! Liz likes adding a little liquid stevia or erythritol for sweetness.

August 24, 2016 by
The kitchen is the headquarters of any home. It’s the hub of the house, where everyone can gather, talk, and relax. The kitchen can be a comforting space, where you can cook your grandmother’s favorite recipe time and time again. Or it can be an inspiring space, a place for you to invent a new dish, innovative and delicious. Whatever the case may be, we all need a clean, comfortable kitchen!

Being a strictly vegetarian facility, the BumbleBar team loves animals! Almost every team member has a pet of their own, and we share stories about them often!

Hannah, (the BB Team Member, not the dog ☺), has a small terrier mix, named Albert. We asked our crew what their favorite thing is about being a pet owner, and what tips you have for training or managing their animals. Let’s see what they had to say!

Our team now parks farther away and has the opportunity to take a few more steps before getting to work! Did you know that each step you take contributes to the calories you burn throughout the day? It seems like common sense but it’s something we often don’t think about! According to Shape Up America, you’ll burn one calorie for every 20 steps you take. Shape Up America! encourages a goal of taking 10,000 steps per day to burn 500 calories, which equals a pound of fat over the course of a week.
