Our story

Hola, my name is Jhohanna, back in 2020, I created Grove Made Co., offering lovely artisanal goodies. I started making arepas, waffles, and other treats at home because I was always searching for fresh, homemade arepas and was dissatisfied with the quality, taste, and ingredients available. So, I decided to make my own.

With encouragement from family and friends who loved my arepas, we realized that something this good needed to be shared with the world. I began selling arepas made with real corn, waffles using real cassava roots and plantains, and cheesebono using a traditional flour from back home. My husband then suggested incorporating tree nut flours, which led to the creation of our toastie flats, perfect for lunch or a low-calorie snack.

We expanded our artisanal menu to include fruit jellies, salsas, spreads, frozen products, and granola. I am deeply concerned about what goes into our food, so I strive to make my products with the freshest, most natural ingredients. We avoid preservatives and artificial additives.

I’m from Colombia, I live in Coconut Grove, Miami, with my husband, four dogs, and a variety of wildlife that visits our backyard, including peacocks, iguanas, and squirrels. We love nature, the world, traveling, and relaxing together.
