If you are a customer of The Peoples Produce you may have received their gorgeous newsletter last night and Id like to touch on it ♥️
When we say we see you and we have been where you are, trust us, we genuinely mean it.
The read below is a little long, but worth it.
On Saturday night at the Kalamunda Chamber of Commerce Gala awards night, I finally got to put a face to all of the communication, email exchange, support and generosity that was afforded to me years ago when I was in my most vulnerable and probably my darkest place.
I had moved myself and my children back home to my parents place after a horrible divorce and was a very broken shadow of myself. My family were the most amazing soft landing for us when we needed it most
After having paid thousands upon thousands of dollars to get our household items transported back down to Perth, my bank account was looking very sad. I had started a subscription with the people’s produce to make sure that at a bare minimum, my kids had fruit and veg consistently.
A few weeks in, I missed a payment!
Financially things were pretty bad, I got a call from the sweetest of ladies who had dropped the box off regardless of missed payment.
We had a pretty emotional conversation on the phone and I let her know my circumstances and made my apologies and assured her that the payment would be made up, to which she replied, NO it won’t, please don’t worry about it.
On that basis I had been under the assumption that my subscription for my fruit and veg delivery had been cancelled, it hadn’t.
In fact, our fruit and veg deliveries came weekly without question, quite often with extras like eggs and even a box of cherries at Christmas time which made my children’s day.
The email communication continued back and forth with them, with me sharing my gratitude and with this beautiful woman checking up to make sure that we were okay.
This warmth and kindness restored my faith and became the driver for me to go back to uni and refresh my skills, to build new skills and create an empire for my children that could never be taken away from us.
It also sparked a desire to be able to help people when they need it the most. Years later I have partnered with the most wholesome, gentle, beautiful soul who has wrapped his love and safety around our children and has bought us the most beautiful and healthy, incredible love that I have ever known. His support and encouragement allowed me to step into this business with absolute confidence.
I have opened my very own allied health clinic in Kalamunda where in the last six months we have given just over $3000 worth of discounts to our clients when they’re having a rough day or they’re not coping.
After being so incredibly and generously supported by the most amazing couple who didn’t know me from a bar of soap, I finally got my chance to say thank you face-to-face and it was definitely one of the most profound and beautiful moments I’ve had all year.
So from our family to yours
♥️ THANK YOU ♥️
We will always and forever continue to pay it forward ♥️
The awards you took home are beautifully deserved and we are proud to know you.
