UPDATE:
FEDEX WILL MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT ON 3/31/21-ย
Thank you for all your votes!! Fingers crossed!
I entered a small business contest on FedEx!
Between now & March 24, 2021 PLEASE go online & vote for Ojai Jelly!
One vote per day, per person- TELL your friends & Ojai Jelly fans!
VOTE HERE- FedEx GRANT LINK
I started my business on a shoestring in 2010. I had a stroke in 2007, which led to heart surgery, then falling & severely fracturing my sacrum… No fun at all but I’m here & I’m smiling
(most of the time)-ย Bottom line: I really needed a job!ย
You can read more about me here if you’d like to.
This is me before I had a stroke- it left me unable to walk or talk. I was 48.

Thank GOD I’m fully recovered & perfectly capable now. I’ll be 62 on Saint Patricks Day!
Fast forward to 2021, I sell in every state in this GREAT country of ours, +
in two villages in Baja, Mexico!
The small business FedEx contest limited me to 1000 words INCLUDING spaces-
so I couldn’t elaborate…
I’d LOVE to win the grant!! With your daily votes I might be able to do just that!!
If I win, here’s what I’d like to do:
โEnjoy more shipping with FedEx Ground and possibly expand to FedEx Express
โPrint my logo on my shipping boxes so they can advertise my company as they’re en-route
โHave new banners made
โHave large magnet logo signs made to use on my vehicles
โPrint more business cards
โPrint more recipes for y’all
โMaybe I’ll even have my pepper logo printed on all my “Jelly Roll” tubes
โPossibly have t-shirts, masks, hats, mugs, water bottles printed with my logo!
โฅI recycle, repurpose & reuse clean materials in the safe shipping & packing of Ojai Jelly.
I drive the truck, I unload the cases (usually alone), especially during the ongoing pandemic.
Thank you for your time, for your vote & especially for supporting my small business!
My business is one-woman strong! Me!
The possibilities are endless & I don’t shy away from hard work!
