Fancy Foods Show 2023. Dieline Review of SPiN:
"Organic nut milk concentrate in a pouch—an idea so wacky that it has an aesthetic paired to match. Each container has a nut character, encapsulated in an astronaut's suit, venturing into exciting and unknown worlds; an apt metaphor for an exciting new-generation product."
Voted Best Pure Ground Vanilla Powder
"This product had “strong vanilla flavor” with “floral” and aromatic notes. Its distinctive flavor is likely due to the Tahitian vanilla beans it’s made from; they are often touted as being fruitier and more floral than Madagascar Bourbon vanilla beans. Cookies made with this ground vanilla tasted “intensely vanilla, fruity, with notes of cherry.” We included it here because it is made solely from vanilla beans."

Go Nuts!
"If you love nut butter, add this brand to your must-try list: Wilderness Poets. The company is carful about sourcing ingredients, and each microbatch of raw nut butter is hand-crafted to creamy, nutty deliciousness no matter what type you choose: almond, walnut, cashew, macadamia, pistachio, pecan, or pine nut. Most jars contain just one ingredient - the starring nut, with no sugar or additives."

"Hemp-The Little Weed That Could: Entrepreneurs constantly expand the list of hemp products: "Wilderness Poets, John Bannerman and Mika Kakizaki were a hemp plant's dream couple.... They made batches of hemp-nut butters in their kitchen. They decided hemp was a way to challenge others to think about sustainability. The hemp-nut butters shared "Best in Show" at the New Local Products Expo, thus ensuring shelf space at New Seasons. Whole Foods ordered, too. "We have huge orders," Kakizaki says. The butters, labeled Wilderness Poets, will have their first big production run next month. "I wanted to create a product that spoke to my ideals," Kakizaki says. Hemp is "a plant that's misunderstood." -Steve Woodward

"Poetic Justice: Wilderness Poets Nut butters Deliver Both Literary and Culinary Goodness. Everyone knows about peanut butter and almond butter. You may not, however, be aware of Wilderness Poets line of seed and nut butters, which take the art of nut and seed spreads to a whole new level.... -poetry for your palette."
