Owner Tawnni Miles started the business in 2017 and bought a trailer in 2020, which she took to a variety of events and farmers’ markets.

The new space will allow the business to expand its menu to offer yogurt bowls, acai bowls, lemonades, overnight oats, avocado toast, fruit bowls and salads, according to a release from Wright Dunbar Inc.

“As a registered nurse, I knew changing our diets was key to curing the ailments attacking health,” Miles said in the release. “So what better way than to show up with the healthiest and most nutritious juices, lemonade and yogurt bowls.”

The new business is expected to open this spring.

Millions of dollars in new investments for projects in West Dayton including the old Wright Dunbar neighborhood on West Third.
