ideas remixed LLC

My name is Wendy Hammond and I have a passion for ideas. I love analyzing, making connections, and figuring out how to best present them so they can be understood by others.

Since 2003 I have worked in fundraising and public relations for CRWRC (an international community development and relief organization). I've been able to combine my love for public relations, marketing, and group facilitation to achieve both work and personal goals.

Through exposure to international community development principles, and my rural farming childhood, I developed a passion for supporting local food economies. In order to spread these ideals in an accessible way, I created two websites, The Local Cook and Eat Local, West Michigan!

In addition, my husband and I have a dream of opening a microbrewery. In the process I've come to appreciate the special challenges of small businesses, and how applicable nonprofit management principles are to small business startups.

“Ideas are useless unless used. The proof of their value is only in their implementation.” – Theodore Levitt.

That is what this website is all about - helping small businesses, nonprofits, and those who have ideas put them together in an actionable format and get others to join in their journey. Ultimately, I want this website to become a place for people to share ideas, connect, and imagine.
