More and more, snack bars clutter grocery store aisles. Rainbows of different colored packaging streak the shelves with unproven health claims, false nutrition statements, and exaggerated information. Few products stand out amongst the many as being honest, ethical, and health driven. BumbleBar is proud to be one of those few.

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! Our operations manager, Jim, has two small Dachshund doggies named Chloe and Bauer. Aimee has a fuzzy orange cat named Opie, while Liz and Glenn have two crazy pups named Hannah and Levi. 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!

We’re always listening to something, whether it’s a new electronic track, a classic guitar solo, or a crafty remix. Let’s take a look at some of the songs the BumbleBar Team’s been dancin’ to lately..
Seed to Feed
March 30, 2016 by
Ever hear of the seed-to-feed movement? Actually, I just made it up this morning to describe some of what we do. I bet you did not know that we grind our own seed and nut butters to put in the gluten free cookies and bars we make! Each small batch is made fresh.
Check out the humble yet nutrient-dense sunflower seeds we use in our handcrafted seed butter for the clean label food we make for our co-packing clients. First, we start with super fresh delicious raw unsalted sunflower seeds. Then, we mill them in our floor standing food processor. Next, we cool the sunflower butter on trays to maintain its’ freshness. Finally, we make delicious, simple clean food with our premium sunflower seed butter!
