Listen "Michigan’s Chocolate with a Conscience: Grocer's Daughters Chocolate"
Episode Synopsis
In the tiny lakeside town of Empire, Michigan, the scent of melted chocolate drifts through the air. But inside Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate, co-owner Jody Hayden is doing far more than creating sweet treats — she’s rewriting the story of chocolate itself.From her early days working with Mayan farmers in Mexico to handcrafting ethically sourced confections in northern Michigan, Jody has built a business that proves indulgence and integrity can coexist. She shares how small farmers across the globe are finally being paid fairly, why some cacao growers have never even tasted chocolate, and how every bar from her shop carries a piece of social change.Address:11590 S Lacore St, Empire, MI 49630Links:👉 Website: https://www.grocersdaughter.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/GrocersDaughterChocolateSubscribe to our Email Newsletter: https://totalmichigan.com/join/Find us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/totalmichiganWatch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@totalmichigan
