For both Colleen Graham and Rebecca Sherbino, The Raw Carrot began as a passion project. Wanting to create a space in their community where people who
didn’t quite fit into the traditional work environment could thrive, make an income and meet some people along the way.
“So the reason that we got started with this was because there was a lot of people in our community who were living in poverty, marginalized for various reasons, but lots of that had to do with their disability or mental illness,” said Sherbino.
