Introducing the other half of the EQUIL whānau - Graedon, @ednotmed. Co-creator of Organic Mechanic @theorganicmc, Graedon and Dave have been mates for over a decade.
From journeying through the Sacred Valley to Machu Picchu together in Peru, experiencing life-changing plant medicine on a mountain top, rapping around fires at parties, and enjoying a hemp latte at the smoothie shack - Dave & G always knew there was a deep collab on the horizon.
Both previously setting up organic smoothie bowl enterprises, Graedon had @theorganicmc #OMShack in Parnell, Auckland 2013 - 2021, and Dave (with a bit of OM inspiration) set up the @vitalityorganics shack in the Mount in 2015, which still continues to this day.
In 2021, Graedon moved to help set up @mangaroafarms - a regenerative food hub and education centre on the outskirts of Wellington, as he watched Dave build a whacky mushroom brand @flowstate__nz into a mycelial dynasty, which he later sold to legends Ian and Chloe, and then purchased a house & planted a food forest to feed his whānau in Waimate North.
With Dave’s entrepreneurial experience in building a quality supplement product, and his ability to set clothing alight with a level of humour not seen before, combined with G’s artistic experience crafting a qualty probiotic #OMkombucha, and leading a wellbeing community of men through @bros.nz (shout out @billylewis.nz) - Dave & G have teamed up to create quality supplements and tools, sourced directly from nature to support sleep, mood, and vitality.
EQUIL is all about ingredients sourced from mountains to sea - not synthesised a lab. Our mission, supporting the people to create a state of equilibrium on the inside and out.
We are absolutely stoked to share this collaboration with the world, and to let you know that EQUIL has a few more projects in the pipeline ️
Stay tuned.
Graedon.
