ashley tyrner, founder and ceo of farmbox direct. ashley tyrner isn't just a female entrepreneur; she's a force to be reckoned with. the founder and ceo of farmbox direct, a company that delivers fresh produce to your door, her road to success wasn’t easy. a single mom who used to live on food stamps, ashley saw a desperate need for a service like this. with a lot of hustle and hard work, she managed to turn it into a multimillion dollar business (with no venture capital funding by the way). now, she is determined to eradicate food deserts (not just in the u.s. but across the globe) because everyone, regardless of income or location, deserves to have access to healthy food. i took some time out with ashley to learn more about her journey, the challenges she’s had to overcome, and her latest startup, harlow’s harvest (the brainchild of her adorable 8 year old daughter, harlow). caroline castrillon: what inspired you to start your own company and specifically farmbox direct? ashley tyrner: it really came from a need. i had a very young child at the time, and i was a busy working mom in the corporate world here in new york city. i was finding that even in this big city of new york, it was very, very difficult to find fresh fruits and vegetables, especially great quality ones. i thought this is crazy! i'm in this massive city. how can i not get great organic strawberries delivered to me? then, i realized that i was not the only one with this problem. it turned out that there are people across america with the same issue. castrillon: did you predict that there would be such a significant demand for a service like this? tyrner: no, i think the “aha” moment was when sam kass joined my advisory board. he was former president obama's senior policy advisor for nutrition policy and executive director for former first lady michelle obama's let's move! campaign. when sam came on board, he said, "did you know that this company can eradicate food deserts overnight?" so i'm like, what's a food desert? then as i started to learn what food deserts were, the company took a very different direction. i didn't have any idea that we would grow to what we are. in fact, if you would have told me four or five years ago, that i would have a nationwide company shipping these boxes all over the country i would have told you you were crazy. sam kass, former white house senior policy adviser for nutrition policy, serves on the advisory... [+] board of farmbox direct. featured here with former first lady michelle obama. associated press castrillon: so, by food desert, do you mean just having limited access to nutritious food in that area? tyrner: yes, essentially where people just have no accessibility to fresh fruits and vegetables. castrillon: when did you know it was the right time to secure outside funding? tyrner: my first year of business, we grew so much that i went to an angel investor. we expanded so quickly, and i didn't have money because people were not giving me credit. so, i needed capital just to keep the doors open. i had all these orders, but i needed to be able to buy product. i went to my angel investor and said, hey, remember when you told me if i want an investor to come to you first? well, here i am! castrillon: what challenges have you had to overcome as an entrepreneur? tyrner: how much time do you have! i've had so many challenges. the biggest challenge is that we really did pioneer how to ship fresh fruits and vegetables to your door via a transit company like fedex. there were several times when i thought that maybe this just could not be shipped. i decided that if we can put people on the moon, then we must be able to ship fresh fruits and vegetables. this has to be possible. castrillon: through those challenges, what kept you going? tyrner: i think probably the biggest thing was my daughter. i could not fail because i couldn't let her see me fail. castrillon: what do you enjoy most about being your own boss? tyrner: i like being able to work from anywhere, whether it's disney world, paris or wherever i am in the world. i just need a laptop and wi fi. i still have a very healthy work life balance, and i also like being able to create my own destiny. at the end of the day, if i end up with a tv show, it's because i made that happen. if i end up with a cookbook, i made that happen. i really enjoy being in control of my own destiny. castrillon: is it difficult to delegate as an entrepreneur, especially when you start a company from the ground up? tyrner: yes. one of the biggest things i've had to learn is allowing other people to do things because i can't do everything. no one is ever going to walk through the door of my company and give what i would give to the company because this is my baby. at one point, my entire life savings was invested in this company. so i've had to really let the reins loose a little bit. early on, when things would go wrong, i would get upset. now it's like, well, it's already happened, so how are we going to fix it? there is no book that you are given that says, here's your roadmap to be the ceo of a national company, right? so, it's really a lot of trial and error. since we went into an untapped space of working to eradicate food deserts and shipping this box of produce, it all came with an extra amount of challenges. castrillon: what's the most rewarding part of what you do? tyrner: it’s great when i go and speak and have women come up to me and tell me that my story is so inspiring to them. that's super rewarding. seeing my daughter be proud of me is rewarding because i want her to grow up to just be a kind, great human being. when people in the food desert tell me that because of this company, they stopped taking insulin or lost 350 pounds, those are powerful stories. it’s not just my daughter that's kept me going, it's people in the food desert. castrillon: how do you define success for yourself? tyrner: success for me is not defined by a dollar amount. success for me is only going to be defined when the food desert problem is eradicated in america. then i'm going to want to tackle the issue globally. castrillon: tell me about harlow's harvest and what the inspiration was for that. tyrner: my newest startup is harlow's harvest. harlow is my daughter. my daughter is quite creative. she's a vegan. she's written songs about our plastic waste issue. she loves to cook. so that’s really where we got the idea. we’ve taken culinary education out of our classrooms in america, so kids are not growing up with the life skill of learning how to cook. there has always been a plan for the education aspect of farmbox direct, and that's what harlow's harvest is. our obesity rate is at 48% for children 12 and under in this country. so, clearly, children need to learn to eat healthily. all of the recipes that we send out in the harlow's harvest kits are vegan or vegetarian. we have a huge community aspect that goes into the content of these kits. for instance, next month's kit is the “ocean kit," and it goes into how we're going to have more plastic than fish in our oceans if we don’t stop this plastic problem. that’s very true to my daughter. i wanted to make this company very authentic to her because this is really her baby. ashley's daughter harlow is following in her mom's footsteps with harlow's harvest. castrillon: how would you say your daughter has been impacted by all the success of farmbox direct and now harlow's harvest? tyrner: i do think the reason that she has become this little activist is in part to farmbox direct. she's been to the white house with me. she's seen me speaking at huge events about food policy and food deserts and learning how lucky she is to have fresh fruits and vegetables in front of her at the dinner table. so, she has definitely been impacted by that. i also think she is super proud of what her mom does at work. she even tells me she's going to take over farmbox direct someday! castrillon: what is your vision for the future of farmbox direct and harlow's harvest? tyrner: i think we will eventually have farmbox direct fulfill ingredients for harlow's harvest that will ship directly to people's homes. for harlow's harvest, i also feel that we will venture off into different food categories like kosher or perhaps different types of cooking techniques. we'll also start gardening kits for kids in the spring and summer. it's just about training kids to eat healthily. i'm turning farmbox direct into a content company. when i say that, i mean all the farm boxes are going to have different recipe ideas every week. it's all about content and educating people. so i'm pushing us to be a content company, and i'm actually quite excited about that. we're a lifestyle brand. no one in our space has become a content company yet, so that's really where i want to move us to. the conversation has been edited and condensed for clarity.
