In this episode of Know Your Food, Sarela Herrada, co-founder of Simpli, joins us live in Brooklyn to talk about how her roots in Peru—and her career in mission-driven food—led her to build a pantry brand that’s anything but ordinary. Simpli sources beautiful beans and grains directly from smallholder farmers in Latin America, prioritizing transparency, traceability, and equity every step of the way.We get into how Simpli is reshaping the conversation around everyday staples, the challenges and rewards of building a values-based supply chain, and how food can be both deeply personal and radically transformative.If you care about food systems, women-led businesses, or pantry staples with a purpose, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.This conversation was recorded live as part of our Know Your Food event series at our warehouse in Bushwick. Keep up with our mission to support regenerative agriculture and slowly change how New York eats.
