Connect With Sara Mader: Sara Mader is Co-Founder and CEO of Palouse Brand, a fifth-generation farm operation producing grains, dry beans, and pulses in southeast Washington State. Sara quickly saw a need for a direct to consumer, farm-to-table, business model that bridged a necessary consumer conversation gap for farm-to-table products. Palouse Brand was created out of this need and conversation, and since has been able to reach consumers across the United States with fresh family farmed non-GMO grains and legumes. Sara also wanted to run her company differently and sought to create an alternative, flexible work environment for women in our rural communities, that provides time and space for both family and work. This platform has transpired into a predominantly female led company, with women running both the behind the scenes work as well as the packaging line. Palouse Brand Lentils
