“Why a rabbit?” Many have asked.
There isn’t a deep meaning behind the rabbit on our new granola packaging, other than I’ve loved rabbits since I was a little girl.
Some of my earliest memories are from the years we lived in a rented farmhouse. I remember lying in the grass, finding zoo animals in the clouds, taking long walks and exploring old barns, picking blackberries for jam, and our beloved Mr. Rabbit.
Mr. Rabbit wasn’t just any rabbit to me. He wasn’t caged, shared his meals with our dog, Joy, sunned himself on the front porch, and had a calm, gentle spirit that seemed to settle over all of us.
Years later, when we opened The Table, I had another rabbit named Mr. Rabbit, just like the one my mom had when I was young.
There’s nothing extraordinary about any of it. But I think that’s what makes it special. So often, it’s the simple, ordinary beauty in our lives that stays with us and leaves the greatest mark.
Have a beautiful day.

P.S. Swipe to see my mom holding Mr. Rabbit
