E v e r y o n e has been talking about the fall of Silicon Valley Bank this week, and I kept reading about how SVB primarily catered to tech companies and start ups. As a small business that doesn’t really fit either of these categories that was/is a customer, too, I wanted to share another POV of how their seizure has impacted our company and team. It’s a long one, but if you’re interested you can find the whole rundown via our #linkinbio. Also to everyone who has reached out since we sent the update last night - thank you. These past few days have been trying and scary, but the one thing that always buoys the bad days is the incredible connections I’ve/our team has been able to make with our customers, vendors, and fans on this platform. We love reading your notes and words of encouragement and I truly can’t explain how much it makes all of our days when you take the time to stop and write us. Thank you, thank you, thank you. xx, Christina and Team Farmgirl
