MAKER STORY:

Asheville, NC-based brand 18 Chestnuts Soups works with local farmers to create housemade soups packed with nutrients and brimming with fresh vegetables and other sustainable ingredients. Founder Ilona Kossof is a former lawyer who left a corporate real estate company she owned with her husband to attend a prestigious nutrition program at Cornell Unviersity, and developed the idea for 18 Chestnuts Soups from there. The company's earth-friendly practices include using glass jars for easy recycling and composting any waste that occurs during the cooking process. To boot, they give back by helping educate children about the importance of healthy eating and donating a portion of the profits to charity.
