History of Mama Nano's

Many years ago, in the tiny mountain town of Avery, Idaho -- Mama Nano and her friends would gather together at the local community center to create this tasty treat by the barrel full.  Avery folks used the sauce with crackers, appetizers, salads, pastas and burgers.  Everyone had their own preferences of course, so as the pots were filled according to taste, the resulting flavors were many and varied.  Mama Nano's own recipe contains 17 ingredients!

In recent years, friends and family have been enjoying Nano's cooking by the pint-full, with delighted comments and sometimes funny stories coming back.  One friend left hers on the kitchen counter, only to return soon after to find just the empty jar and a spoon!  So, feeling sorry for her friend, Nano then gave her 'two' jars... with the suggestion that one of them be hidden safely in her car.  Well, you might guess what happened next.  Yup, Frank found both of them... and they were done for.. both in the same day!

Encouraged by these experiences, Nano decided to try her hand at marketing, and 'Mama Nano's debuted on July 15th, 2001 at the Kelso farmer's market..... and as the saying goes.. the rest is 'history'.
