I Am Northwest Arkansas®

About the Show:We recently sat down with Jake Lewis, the founder of Woodworx Workshop. Jake is a  talented artist and woodworker.  He learned to marry his passion for woodworking and art with business. He takes recycled wood and repurposes them into works of art for all to enjoy - see some of the examples in the Show Notes below.I spent some time in Jake’s tidy little workshop just off the Greenway on the Fayetteville and Johnson line, where I got a chance to watch work on one of his new creations, and then we sat down to talk shop - no pun intended.Jake shared an example of how he learned to handle wood and the tools necessary to make his works of art.  He is pretty much self-taught, and from the looks of the art that he is creating, he had a great teacher.  Jake attends many Craft Fairs around the State and is a regular fixture at the Bentonville Market, Ozark Natural Foods, and the Velvet Otter. All this and more on this I am Northwest Arkansas episode.Important Links and Mentions on the Show*Email Jake LewisWebsite for Woodworx WorkshopWoodworx Workshop on InstagramWoodworx Workshop on FacebookWoodworx Workshop on TwitterThis episode is sponsored by*Signature Bank of Arkansas "Community Banking at its Best!"

About the Show:If you are looking for motivation to get your business idea off the ground or just need that extra push for your current business bookmark and listen to this episode for great stories and motivation to achieve your dreams here in the Ozarks whether big or small.  We recently had a chance to sit down and talk with Brant Barnes, the owner of the local Shelter Insurance in downtown Fayetteville.  We connected with Brant through our friend on the podcast, Mark Zweig, a professor of Entrepreneurship at the Sam Walton School of Business at the University of Arkansas.The cool thing about Brant is that he doesn’t just own an insurance agency - his dad was a long-time insurance agent in Mountain Home - but he also has a knack for running businesses. He built some strong relationships early in his insurance career that propelled him to buy into the Papa John's Franchise in Mississippi and then ultimately he converted those successful operations into multiple locations in Arkansas and Missouri. Brant also has his car dealer license and he is a very good pilot that even knows how to crash-land a plane and live to tell the story. You have to hear the whole story to believe it. This is one of our most engaging episodes and Brant shares one nugget of wisdom after another. Be prepared to strap in focus and take some notes. You will not be disappointed.Brantisms: Yes, we made this word up but it is applicable.  “Where we learn is on the edge of comfort!”“Always have a plan, no matter what.”All this and more on this episode of I am Northwest Arkansas.Important Links and Mentions on the Show*Email Brant BarnesWebsite for Shelter Insurance - Brant BarnesShelter Insurance - Brant Barnes Agency on FacebookBrant Barnes on LinkedInThis episode is sponsored by*Signature Bank of Arkansas "Community Banking at its Best!"

About the Show:We recently sat down with EasyBins Founder James Farmer. Known as the Instacart of Northwest Arkansas, EasyBins takes inspiration from the familiar concept of “connecting the store to your door” and offers a unique service, “connecting the market to your door.”Unlike other grocery delivery apps, EasyBins removes the physical store from the equation and allows users to create a basket to fill with products from various stores and have those products delivered right to their doorstep within 12 hours.Before starting EasyBins, James served as the President of The Harvest Group, which in the mid-2010s was growing at such a fast rate that James and his partners “could feel that we were capping the business out.” He began to explore his options. James loved retail and knew he wanted to get physically closer to the product and the customer.James sold his stake in The Harvest Group. He proceeded to move into a new venture, called NiteOwl. After being mistaken for an adult entertainment store several times, James and his team promptly renamed their startup to EasyBins.Listen in as James goes on to share how the pandemic saved EasyBins thousands of dollars in marketing spending and shortened their plans for the company down from five years to less than one. James firmly believes that, for entrepreneurs everywhere, now is the time to embrace the “pandemic pivot” and seek out and seize opportunities.All of this and more on this episode of the I am Northwest Arkansas podcast.Important Links and Mentions on the Show*Website for Easy BinsWebsite for Harvest GroupThis episode is sponsored by*Signature Bank of Arkansas "Community Banking at its Best!"

About the Show:We recently sat down with Fayetteville’s newest City Councilor, D’Andre Jones. D’Andre, a Ward 1 Representative, is the second African-American to hold the position. D’Andre originally ran back in 2014 and didn’t win.  He continued to labor and serve in the community, and then the Spring and Summer of 2020 happened. D’Andre became one of several spokespeople in the Northwest Arkansas community to address Black Lives Matter and other social issues that have become a flashpoint in our country.  He led several peaceful events in both Benton and Washington Counties in the Summer of 2020.  All of this activism and a desire to see diversity, equity, and inclusion flourish in Northwest Arkansas compelled D’Andre to throw his hat in the ring this past November to represent Fayetteville’s Ward 1, a place he calls home. D’Andre previously worked on the Civil Review Board in Fayetteville and has had a strong working relationship with Police Chief Mike Reynolds and the rest of the Fayetteville police department. The Fayetteville Fraternal Order of Police endorsed D’Andre this past election. All this and more on this episode of the I am Northwest Arkansas podcast. Important Links and Mentions on the Show*Email D'Andre JonesD'Andre Jones on FacebookWebsite for City of FayettevilleWebsite for Fayetteville Police DepartmentWebsite for Lake FayettevilleWebsite for Fayetteville Public LibaryWebsite for Razorback Football TeamFayetteville City Councilor D’Andre Jones113 W.

About the Show:We recently sat down with Chef Neal Gray from The Preacher's Son in Bentonville, AR. This episode is our second podcast with this signature restaurant from the Ropeswing Hospitality Group Family.  We initially met with Chef Matt Cooper more than a year and a half ago.  Since Chef Matt left in December of 2020, the restaurant has been in the more than capable hands of Chef Gray.  With a career encapsulating both fine dining and approachable, everyday cuisine, Chef Grayl has extensive experience working at world-class restaurants, including The Inn at Little Washington in Virginia, the highly prestigious French Laundry in Northern California, and Blue Hill at Stone Barns in Tarrytown, New York.The Malvern native is doing quick work to redefine the menu at The Preacher’s Son while honoring its gluten-free roots by consistently offering various GF options on each menu. Overall, guests can expect a showcase of seasonal ingredients that allow the food to shine without feeling manipulated or overworked. When we published these show notes, The Preacher's Son was still observing all Pandemic protocols for dining. We ate there and enjoyed our meal, the wine pairings, and the overall atmosphere in the award-winning restaurant.   All of this and more on this episode of the I am Northwest Arkansas podcast. Important Links and Mentions on the Show*Chef Neal Gray's BioWebsite for The Preacher's Son Website for The Preacher's Son MenuThe Peacher's Son on FacebookThe Preacher's Son on InstagramWebsite for Ropeswing Hospitality GroupThe Preacher's Son201 NW A St.Bentonville, AR 72712(479) 445-6065This episode is sponsored by*Signature Bank of Arkansas "Community Banking at its Best!"
