Hello 👋
This week we’re celebrating Maria, who is finishing up her time with The Organic Collective after the last year and a half 💚
Maria has been a warm and steady part of the team - hardworking, reliable, and always bringing a bright smile into the day no matter how busy things got.
The kind of person who quietly gets things done, supports the people around her, and helps create the feeling of community that sits at the heart of this place 🌱
To celebrate her and everything she’s contributed, the team gathered around a beautiful homemade chai spice pear cake baked by one of our owners. A simple moment, shared together over food, which in many ways says a lot about what this place is really about.
Because behind the boxes, shelves, and deliveries is a real team of people working closely together every day... sharing early mornings, solving problems on the go, learning as we move, and building something that’s bigger than just food.
A lot of what we value as a business comes back to creating a positive team spirit, supporting one another, celebrating contributions, and remembering why we do what we do in the first place.
Maria has been a beautiful part of that culture, and we’re incredibly grateful for everything she’s brought to the collective over the past 18 months.
We’re excited for whatever comes next for her 🌿
Thanks Maria 💚
