Today, Scott and I went on a little field trip. Are you ready to get a little wild and crazy? How about a little "Indigo Wild" and crazy?
If you spend any time roaming the aisles of Whole Foods or HyVee (anyone else like to spend hours in the grocery store? No, just me...oh), you may have come across Zum products. I have made several Zum purchases in my days, but I only recently realized that the Zum factory is right here in Kansas City (Thanks Ma)! Well once I figured that out, Scott and I jumped in the car (zum, zum) and headed right on over.
The Indigo Wild factory is located in the Crossroads District. They have been at this location for 3 years, but have been making Zum for 16. They ship products all across the country and even internationally.
You can schedule time to take a tour of the factory which is pet and fun friendly. Tours are Thursdays, which doesn't work out so well for us 9-5ers, but I am thinking this may warrant getting a group of my girls together and taking a half day off of work. By the time we left, I was ready to apply for a part time job.
Even though we couldn't take a tour today, there was plenty to see and buy. The factory has a little shop with sale bins (score!) and smells oh-so-good! I mean who couldn't get behind a company with this mantra:
"Before Indigo Wild touches your body, it touches these bodies. No worries, we're not showering with your soap singing "I'm Too Sexy" before we ship it off to you. We're talking handcrafted, handmade, hand-mixed, hands-on…which is all pretty dang handsome.
So take a spin with our handy work. It's mixed and mashed with 100% pure essential oils, shea butter, meadowfoam seed oil, soy wax, goat's milk, botanical extracts and other jujulicious ingredients. It all helps to carry on some karma and magnify the mojo. Then it's flashed by the butt of a gnome, danced over by a shaman, kissed by a fairy and blessed by a goat." (source)
It is feeling a little more like winter today in KC. Scott and I have been making our way through a big pot of "Midsummer Corn Chowder with Basil, Tomato, and Fennel." I have only made a handful of the recipes in Veganomicon so far, but they have all been delicious.
Enjoy your weekend peeps!
