Not just for spooky season, this spread is sweet, spiced, and more versatile than you'd think! Dress up a PB&J, stir it into a yogurt parfait, or spoon it over cheesecake.

Locally crafted at the YOU Made It Café, spreading good one jar at a time.

(re)introducing Spreadable Good!

You knew it as Mushed by YOU. The same small batch jams and spreads, still made start to finish by the youth in our YOU Made It Café, trained by professional chefs - just a fresh name and label to match all the good in every jar.

New name, new look, same mission: real skills, real jobs, real community.

Six favourites to try:
🫐 Triple Berry Jam
🌶️ Four Pepper Jelly
🍊 Tangy Cranberry Chutney
🍓 Strawberry Rhubarb Jam
🎃 Spiced Pumpkin Spread
🍑 Zesty Peach Salsa

Huge thanks to adHOME for bringing the new name and label to life through their community partnership program.
