In other news,

we sold our first branded product, a custom hardwood table!  This project was a case study in combining skill acquisition and value creation. It was also a way to showcase our new business partner, One Tree Planted, a non-profit that plants trees to offset the materials and energy consumed by our product.  

While not a core business function, literally making something was a valuable learning experience and chance to connect with our community.  See the full story here.
