History

Established in 2011.

Minnesota Nice Spice was started as a local company who wanted to give back. My sister; Lucy is an artist who is developmentally delayed. Since she started attending Interact Center for adults with disabiities in 2009, she has transformed into a self confident person who has found a great «home» in the community.

These people are often displaced in the community and Interact gives them a sense of purpose and community where they can showcase their unique talents.

I started this company to help the Interact Center become more self-​sustainable and to get the word out about what an amazing charitable organization it is.
