"Gifting is an opportunity to share, and build, your company culture. What you give can communicate who you are, and so a great gift can communicate what is important to your company."
Three Gifting Strategies To Connect With Stakeholders In An Increasingly Remote World
"For over a decade, Jennifer Field Piette has put together boxes of local fruits, vegetables and various pantry staples from California — Koda Farms rice, pale blue pastured eggs, crusty loaves of sourdough — and delivered them to people’s doorsteps in Los Angeles."
As Supermarkets Feel Hazardous and Sparse, Small Farms Deliver

"Food is a powerful way to evoke memories and identities. Certain smells will bring you back to your childhood. When you’re traveling, the first place you go is a market or a restaurant. Narrative Food is all about these stories."
"A freshly relocated business is bringing bicoastal farmer’s market favorites and more straight to your door. While supporting small-batch makers, Narrative Food supports ethical practices as a B Corp Certified business."

"Whether crafted from worn mahogany or covered in cloth, the dining table can often feel like the first page of a family’s story – the following chapters dedicated to each and every ancestor that came before. However, the founder of Narrative Food, Jennifer Piette, said the table actually lies closer to the middle of the tale, with the real story beginning with the ingredients grown on the land."

"There’s nothing quite like food as an avenue to culture and community. We love to share meals and recipes, and we believe the link between nourishment and nurturing is one that spans business and family life. So we were thrilled to get the chance to talk with Jennifer Piette, the CEO and founder of Narrative Food, for our Founding Mothers interview series.
Jennifer’s career is one of constant reinvention and long stints living abroad, so she brings a wealth of different experiences to her current role and a deep commitment to B Corp ideals."

★★★★★"What is special about our gift boxes, is that they all tell a story. They tell stories of small scale makers with amazing craft; they tell stories of food traditions, regenerative agricultural practices, and upcycling; they are curated to tell a company’s story or celebrate a milestone with mindfully chosen products that reflect a company’s culture. Above all, they are made with love, each box hand-packed with deliciousness, stories, and future memories. Creating lasting memories around the table, and around food, is what gets me most excited. That, and the fact we are also giving back so others also thrive."
"I always talk about Narrative Food’s mission as trifold—making a positive impact on individual health, community health, and soil health. And you can't talk about one without talking about the other. So from an environmental perspective, soil health is probably the number one thing that we can do to help fight climate change, and that's just fundamental. We can make choices with our food that have a positive impact on the planet, so that's what we have to do, and buying certified organic speaks to our commitment on this level."
"During the pandemic, we were very proud to serve as front-line workers — supporting our growers and suppliers alike during this challenging time. However post-pandemic, the landscape changed, so in 2022, Narrative Food pivoted its activity into corporate gifting, broadening its reach by shipping curated gifts nationwide, and joining 1% for the Planet, to further expand its impact. Every gift we curate gives back, as well as communicating a company’s culture to its stakeholders. In an increasingly remote world, we create an impactful touchpoint which is thoughtful and delicious – improving team spirit, client relationships, and boardroom dynamics."
