How I Built This with Guy Raz
Poppi: Allison and Stephen Ellsworth. From Farmers Market Vinegar Drink to $2B Soda Sensation

How I Built This with Guy Raz

A decade ago, Allison Ellsworth was drinking apple cider vinegar for health reasons and doctoring it with fruit so she could stand the taste. Her husband Stephen helped her turn it into a business by adding carbonation on a hacked soda line in their Dallas townhouse. They called it “Mother Beverage,” and sold out every week at the farmers market…but then heard the words no founder forgets: “Your branding is…sh*t.” What happens next is one of the wildest CPG glow-ups of the 2010s: a Shark Tank deal with brand whisperer Rohan Oza, a full rebrand to Poppi, colored cans that jumped off the shelf, a launch derailed by Covid—and finally, an explosion fueled by Amazon, TikTok, and a Super Bowl moment that planted the flag: We're soda–and we've left the farmers market for good. Five years after its rebrand, Poppi was acquired by Pepsi for nearly $2B. This is the story of the messy bottling line, saying no to “dumb money,” baptism by Shark Tank, and building a generational brand while staying married.In this episode, you'll learn:How rebranding can rescue a beverage, and when to avoid early eye-rolls The hit-and-miss of carbonating on a small scale (and why co-packers said no).How the risky decision to call Poppi “soda” unlocked a new retail set (functional soda).What a Shark Tank partner does during a rebrand window.How Allison seized on TikTok to spike sales during Covid Timestamps:0:10:15 Meeting cute at a snowboard shop → engagement in 7 months 0:14:00 How apple cider vinegar helped Allison's health…but tasted terrible (early flavor hacks) 0:22:36 DIY carbonation disasters: exploding bottles & the 40°F lesson 0:42:28 Selling out at the Dallas Farmers Market 0:37:48 Appearing on Shark Tank while nine months pregnant and the deal with Rohan: “your branding is sh*t.”0:47:02 The nail-biting rebrand from “Mother” to Poppi: colored cans vs. white, and winning the shelf 0:53:44 Expo West canceled by Covid → a massive turnaround fueled by Amazon, Shark Tank, and TikTok1:05:51 Super Bowl ad– “We're soda!”--and the road to a ~$2B Pepsi acquisition 1:07:58 Growing a business while managing a marriage Follow How I Built This:Instagram → @howibuiltthisX → @HowIBuiltThisFacebook → How I Built ThisFollow Guy Raz:Instagram → @guy.razX → @guyrazSubstack → guyraz.substack.comWebsite → guyraz.comThis episode was produced by Rommel Wood with music composed by Ramtin Arablouei.

This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. The Downtown Farmers Market's mission is to support local agriculture, foster community, improve access to fresh food, and promote shopping locally. Joining us to share more is Carly Gillespie, Deputy Director at the Urban Food Connections of Utah. Carly Gillespie: Thirty-four years ago, Salt Lake's Downtown Alliance launched the Downtown Farmers Market at Pioneer Park. Today, it's Utah's largest free community event, drawing more than 250,000 shoppers every summer Saturday from June through October, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. The Market is a powerful economic driver — generating over 11 million dollars in annual direct-to-consumer sales. It's home to over 300 vendors from 16 Utah counties, 65 percent of them women-owned. More than a third of these businesses got their start right here at the Market. Here you'll find farm-fresh fruits and vegetables, locally made food and beverages, and a vibrant arts and crafts market. It's a gathering space where Utah farmers, food entrepreneurs, and neighbors come together — strengthening our local economy and our community. The Downtown Farmers Market at Pioneer Park is open every Saturday, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Learn more at slcfarmersmarket.org. Derek Miller: By shopping at the Downtown Farmers Market, you are directly supporting small businesses and local entrepreneurs. Your purchases help them grow, keep your dollars in the community, and give you access to fresh, unique products you can't find anywhere else.

"Every community has different values, and every community should have different choices. And that's why local food is so important so that local communities and local farmers can decide what's most important to them and how they want to connect the people who grow our food with the people who are seeking nourishment." —Andy Naja-Riese "The health of our Farmers Market is really dependent upon the health of our farmers." —Tanner Keys   Wonder why local food sometimes costs more, or if it's really worth the effort to shop there? The real story behind farmers' markets is more complicated—and more important—than you might think. Andy Naja-Riese, CEO of the Agricultural Institute of Marin, and Tanner Keys, Cooperative Agreement Manager for the Islands of Remote Areas Regional Food Business Center, have spent years on the front lines of food access. Their work in California and Hawaii gives them a unique view on what it takes to make local food affordable, how certification and regulations shape what you see at the market, and why these markets matter for everyone. Listen in for honest talk about food prices, local farming, organic rules, food as medicine, and how farmers' markets are working to make healthy food available to all. You'll get practical insights, real solutions, and a fresh look at what's possible in your own community.

Wild East Farm was one of many in North Carolina that suffered from catastrophic flooding during Hurricane Helene in September 2024. Parts of the state received 15-30 inches of rain during the storm, resulting in flash flooding and extensive tree blowdown. Almost a year after the storm, we caught up with Noah Poulos to talk about the lead-up to the storm, how they tried to save their animals and crops, and the aftermath.Noah shares insights into the farm's recovery process, the importance of diversified farming in spreading risk, and the community's role in supporting local agriculture during extreme weather events.

Farmers markets are a great provisioning option for cruisers. Produce is often fresher and less bruised. And if it hasn't been refrigerated, it will keep longer on your boat.  Summary Farmers markets are a great provisioning option for cruisers. Produce is often fresher and less bruised. And if it hasn'tbeen refrigerated, it will keep longer on your boat.  As we head into peak harvest season in many places, count on farmers markets for provisioning. Why? Goods are usually fresher, picked locally, and not trucked across the country. Produce is often unrefrigerated, making it key for storage aboard. Finally, it's usually less bruised, offering a longer shelf life and better flavor. And it's not only produce you'll find. Look for fresh eggs, homemade baked goods, cheese, and meat with fewer preservatives (although they will last less long). Best of all, you can ask vendors questions about what they're selling. You can find farmers markets around the world. Every town has its specialties. Ask everyone in your local cruising network for locations. And, if you're sailing the ICW, you'll find farmers markets near many marinas and anchorages. Oneof the largest is the West Palm Beach GreenMarket, which runs from October through April. Check the show notes for a link to a list of markets located along the ICW.

Insects as a solution to food waste and a new farm “crop” with Pat Crowley of Chapul Farms in Oregon

“Get your fresh local insects, and frass too!” If Pat Crowley had his way, insects and their byproducts (most notably frass used as fertilizer) would take their place alongside vegetables and flowers as profitable enterprises for local farms. And the best part is, they are fed on a widely-available byproduct: some of the 100 million tons of food waste that is currently going into landfills in the United States.Pat is the founder and CEO of Chapul Farms, which designs, builds and operates insect farms, having featured on Shark Tank in 2014. If you saw that episode, the company has changed a lot since then, changing their focus from raising crickets to raising black soldier fly larvae (a protein source for other animals) and their frass, i.e. the excrement and exoskeletons of the flies that can be used as fertilizer. This interview with host Katie Kulla is fascinating both for the insect's potential as a new farm product, as well as learning how Chapul Farms has raised funds, including the regenerative funding platform where they raised $2 million in an hour. Connect With Guest:Instagram: @chapulinnovationcenterWebsite: chapulfarms.com Podcast Sponsors: Huge thanks to our podcast sponsors as they make this podcast FREE to everyone with their generous support: Nifty Hoops builds complete gothic high tunnels that are easy to install and built to last.

Send us a textWhat if teaching children about nutrition could be as vibrant and engaging as a rainbow? Dr. Jessica Miller transforms healthy eating education through her colorful children's book "Rico Eats a Rainbow," bringing her unique background as both educator and public health specialist to tackle childhood nutrition challenges.Dr. Miller shares the heartwarming story behind her book's creation—initially designed as a personal gift for her nephew Rico before evolving into a powerful educational tool now used in schools nationwide. The genius of her approach lies in its positive framing: rather than demonizing certain foods, the book celebrates the colorful variety of nutritious options available to children. This strategy has earned enthusiastic endorsements from physicians who recognize its potential to address the alarming rise in childhood chronic conditions they witness daily.As we discover during our conversation, "Rico Eats a Rainbow" does more than just teach nutrition facts—it empowers children by positioning them as knowledgeable guides who can teach their parents something new. The book cleverly models family conversations about food choices and introduces concepts like farmer's markets as accessible adventures rather than intimidating health mandates. Dr. Miller's careful attention to language—avoiding phrases like "bad foods" in favor of more balanced messaging—creates a judgment-free zone where families can learn together.The impact of Dr. Miller's work extends beyond individual families, with teachers developing entire curriculum units around the book and pediatricians keeping copies in their offices to loan to patients. Now expanding into a series with forthcoming titles on physical activity and hand hygiene, Dr. Miller has found her calling in creating children's literature with strong public health messaging that resonates with readers of all ages. Whether you're a parent struggling with picky eaters, an educator seeking engaging health materials, or simply someone interested in creative approaches to public health challenges, this conversation offers valuable insights into how colorful storytelling can transform healthy habits.Support the showhttps://linktr.ee/genthebuilder

Over more than 30 years, Featherstone Farm has grown their CSA and wholesaling to the point where they are now growing on 135 acres and have scaled up some of their major crops- for one example, they are storing 120 tons or more of carrots every year. These are distributed through their CSA and wholesaling. Though Featherstone has gotten a lot bigger over the years, they have remained committed to high agricultural standards with a Real Organic Project certification and high standards for the nearly 50 farm workers that they employ.Jack Hedin started the farm with his wife in 1994, and Abby Benson is the farm's production manager and part of the leadership team. In this interview with host Katie Kulla, Jack and Abby discuss overcoming the production and logistics challenges that saw the farm grow from a much smaller size to having as many as 1400 CSA members in some years. Farming is never without a challenge, though, and they discuss how changing weather patterns are resulting in prolonged wet periods that threaten many of their crops with increased disease pressure, and how they are planning for other challenges to keep the farm healthy into the future.Connect With Guest:Instagram: @featherstonefarmmnWebsite: featherstonefarm.com Podcast Sponsors: Huge thanks to our podcast sponsors as they make this podcast FREE to everyone with their generous support: Nifty Hoops builds complete gothic high tunnels that are easy to install and built to last.
