About
LEMONTREE EXISTS TO HELP LOW-INCOME FAMILIES COOK HEALTHY, DIGNIFIED AND AFFORDABLE DINNERS. OUR CORE PROGRAM CONSISTS OF THE DELIVERY OF $2/PORTION "MEAL KITS" WITH ALL THE INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO PREPARE A DINNER. EVERY WEEK WE OFFER A NEW MENU BY TEXT MESSAGE AND ALLOW PARENTS TO ORDER INGREDIENTS FOR DELIVERY TO A LOCAL PICKUP SITE THE FOLLOWING WEEK. - THE COSTS OF OUR PRODUCTS CHANGES SEASONALLY AND WE ARE CURRENTLY SUBSIDIZING OUR MEALS AS WE BEGIN TO SCALE. ONE OF OUR RISKS IS THE ABILITY TO BECOME SUSTAINABLE OR RAISE FUTURE FUNDS. BEYOND THAT, WE ARE NOT CONCERNED ABOUT CHANGES TO OUR COST STRUCTURE. - FROM A COMPETITION PERSPECTIVE, THE FAMILIES WE SERVE HAVE LOTS OF OPTIONS. EVERYTHING FROM FOR-PROFIT MEAL-KITS (WHICH ARE FAR MORE EXPENSIVE) TO GROCERY STORES (WHICH ARE OFTEN FAR AWAY), FOOD PANTRIES (WHICH LACK OUR DIGNITY COMPONENT) AND CSA/FARMERS MARKETS (WHICH ARE ALSO MORE EXPENSIVE). - MANY OF OUR USERS RELY ON SNAP, A PROGRAM THAT IS INCREASINGLY POLITICAL. - WE ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SNAP AND ARE APPROVED BY THE USDA FOR EACH SITE WE OPEN. WE HAVE NOT BEEN PENALIZED AT ALL.
