Hey, Story Makers! Welcome back to Tellwell: The Podcast, where we uncover the amazing stories behind inspiring people. In today’s episode, we’re excited to chat with Vanessa Williamson, CEO and co-founder of Farmented. Vanessa transformed a class project into a successful business that focuses on local produce, sustainability, and delicious fermented foods. She shares how Farmented turns surplus "ugly" crops into tasty treats like sauerkraut and kimchi, supporting local farmers and reducing food waste.

Listen in as Vanessa discusses navigating a male-dominated startup world, growing from farmers' markets to 80 stores, and balancing life as a CEO, wife, and new mom. She also offers valuable advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, especially women and underrepresented groups.
