No... that isn't right... well, kinda. Graze (verb) - To feed on. Ok... A little of that. Ce.le.bra.tion (noun) - The action of marking one's pleasure at an important event or occasion by engaging in enjoyable, typically social, activity. Ooooh Yeeeaah... More of that. Johnny + Glo curates custom boutique inspired celebration boxes for every occasion. We pride ourselves on supporting small local b

usinesses collaborating to make unique offerings that provide you the chance to enjoy food, family, friends and a little fiesta. Established in 2021, the idea was born years before this, likely after the first lunchable in 1990, but sometimes good things have to wait. We are so much more than beautiful boxes of carefully sourced meats and cheeses, so much bigger than cupcakes and macarons. We are the feeling you get when you share with friends. When you build bites, build memories and binge on all the good stuff life has to offer. Who's Johnny? John K Blair is my Dad. He was taken from us too soon after a long fought battle with cancer. He was an artist, an entrepreneur and was always up for a celebration. Who's Glo? Gloria Strychar is my grandmother, the warmest soul you could ever know and the baker of the most outstanding chocolate cake you ever met. Who's Jade? That's me! Daughter of Johnny Granddaughter of Glo and the creative genius (I can say that if I am talking about myself, right?) behind Johnny & Glo. The curator of meats and cheeses and olives... mmmm... olives. The designer of every box, the baker, the gift giver, the lover of a good soirée, the joke teller, the dreamer. The one who is inspired by the memory that is the namesake of this business.

Spooky season is upon us. If I’m being honest - I don’t really care much for Halloween. It’s not that I dislike it, I just don’t looooooove it. However. I did scoop some spooky things to make Halloween grazing a little more festive!!

Halloween weekend is almost fully booked. So if you want to get your char-spook-Erie order in before then now is the time! Also! Watch this week, we will be dropping trick or treat boxes 😍 a cool way to treat your little goblin with something awesome - we are going to accommodate nut free, gluten free, diabetic, and sensory aware. Treats for all!

Thankful. Grateful. Blessed! It has been a hot minute since I stopped to Introduce myself! If you’re new here, Hi 👋 I’m Jade! If you’re an OG cheese lover… sup, thanks for sticking around!

This is the face behind your graze board! I say it frequently, that when I started this business less than a year ago I had no idea what it would become. I have had lots of brilliant ideas before but none that had the staying power… the magic… that this one does. Here are the top five things I have learned in the last 9 months!

1. Don’t compare yourself to your competition. The might offer something you don’t, you probably offer something that they don’t. There is ALWAYS enough room at the table for everyone.
2. When people cheer for you say “thank you” guilty 🤚🏼 sometimes it’s hard to heard people tell you you’re awesome. I’ve learned to accept and enjoy it!
3. Keep your f&$cking receipts - yes. All of them.
4. Don’t underestimate yourself - you can do big hard things and make big hard choices and sign big hard contracts
5. Find balance in chaos. We recently decided to close orders on Sunday’s. I needed it. My family needed it and the boundary feels real nice.

Tell me! What do you want to know about me?!

How cool is this community to share their talents with me?! I messaged Kyla and basically gave her zero direction and said “yea just do whatever you think is best” I LOVE being able to trust a creator to simply create. I LOVE when you trust me to do the same. These beautiful custom cookies are going to add something extra special to today’s bridal suite. You should also know they taste FREAKING AMAZING and… they might just be a little sweet treat going into our thanks giving boxes! (When I say might I mean they are) Thank you for being amazing 😍

Not cheese related but it needs to be said. This is your sign to take a little time for yourself. Take a little time for your friends. Take a little time to nourish the garden that feeds your heart.
I was away for the weekend filling my bucket, that, if I’m being honest was running on E. my heart is so full of gratitude that I can hardly contain it. Right back to Charcuterie today, but I needed to pause to share my full heart with you… with anyone who will listen actually, because that s**t is contagious

If you would have asked me in January if I thought 7 months after launch I would be building a graze table for a developer to enhance his 5.5 million dollar mansion and serve his party of 500 exclusive brokers, guests, agents and celebrities, I would have laughed in your face. you know… it’s not about how fancy the party is, it’s more about being asked to the dance. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to build a 5ft completely halal graze table. Thank you and .public.relations I’m looking forward to the next celebration! You throw one hell of a party!

“Love what you do and you never work a day in your life” is that what they say? “Work for yourself and have freedom” does it go something like that?

Owning a business is no joke, it’s a 24/7 hustle and to be totally honest, I don’t think I’m that great at it. I mean, I build a killer graze box, I will talk to anything that replies… (even people who don’t reply, I still talk at) I work really f$7cking hard. BUT I fall off the wagon when it comes to prioritizing my time, buying all the things, pleasing all the people and some days not truly acknowledging my worth. What I do know to be true is I LOVE this business, I LOVE this brand, and I truly love each and every one of you. I believe it is true when people say “love what you do and you don’t work a day in your life” that bullsh$t about free time tho?! Lol. Laugh. Out. Loud.

Peep this pic snapped by the Uber talented . The smile says it all, no?

It isn’t everyday you get the opportunity to create a magical board on top of a hand crafter masterpiece (if you don’t have a primrose charcuterie board already get yourself a primrose charcuterie board, thank me later) it isn’t just an average Saturday when your board gets to be in the same room as so many talented creators celebrating the Birthdays of two delightful little ladies. Saturday was that day! Check out a little snapshot
