Jenifer & Tristan Hoke of Tecumseh, OK sell baked goods, smoked spices, and other items with their cottage food business, The Drunken Chef.

In their first year of business, they struggled to find consistent sales, despite trying many marketing avenues, including starting their own farmers market.

But finally, they found a sales venue that turned everything around, and now they are building an expanded kitchen on their property to try to keep up with the demand.

Jenifer and Tristan’s story is one of persistence and determination, and of celebrating every single win, big and small.
