So, let's get real for a moment. We're not your typical chocolate brand, and Lyn, the visionary (and heart) behind Quetzal Cacao, is anything but your typical entrepreneur.
You see, Lyn didn't start this journey with some grand plan to change the world. Nope. It all began with a simple desire to create enjoyable things – ethically and sustainably. Farm-to-bar wasn't a strategy; it's a way of life rooted in Lyn's deep love for our planet.
Then there's the craftsmanship bit. Lyn left her comfy spot in the world of fine art and printmaking to dive headfirst into the world of chocolate. A bit unconventional, for sure, but who needs convention when you can create edible art? Each chocolate bar is a masterpiece crafted with a whole lot of love and a dash of determination. 🎨
"I just wanted to be creative and lead by example," Lyn often says. No fancy titles or trendy buzzwords. Just an entrepreneur doing what feels right. Lyn earned her Entrepreneurship degree from Northeastern University in Boston back in the day when entrepreneurship wasn't cool – or maybe it was, but nobody knew it yet. 🎓
The decision to dive into farming cacao wasn't about some grand plan. It's more of a personal mission – a quest for something more sustainable and fulfilling. And wouldn't you know it, Lyn found it right here in the heart of Panamá.
But here's the thing – it's not just about Lyn. It's about all of us – you included. We're building a little community that cares about more than just chocolate. A community that includes providing opportunities in organic agriculture and supporting the growth of young adults through the slow food farm-to-table movement. 🤝
