SXSW 2022 Recap:
Grassroots Harvest attended SXSW 2022! This time, we weren’t a vendor- we’re saving that for next year- but we did want to swing by one of the coolest events in Austin to check it out! We brought some goodies to share while we were there, and had a grand ol time. Here’s what Grassroots Harvest got up to for SXSW 2022!
First and foremost, two of our stellar employees, Patrick and Vince, were the ones making the rounds during SXSW. Patrick and Vince took samples of our newest product line, Lucy Jane, to hand out to anyone interested. These free samples were of our Lucy Jane Choice Spectrum gummies, and they were a big hit! Practically everyone they approached accepted and enjoyed the free sample, with a few notable standouts. One being an Irish punk band that was performing at SXSW- they accepted some free gummy samples from us, and later than evening in their Instagram stories, the band posted that they had eaten all the gummy samples & were REALLY feeling the effects! Thankfully, they were able to rally for their performance that night. Thank goodness! We wouldn’t want to be responsible for too much debauchery!
On top of handing out free samples of our delicious (and potent) Lucy Jane Choice Spectrum gummies, Patrick and Vince got to check out some of the SXSW 2022 action!
