Event Details

We're fortunate that a talented local entrepreneur is among our Ross alumni! Emily Friedberg (MBA 2008) is the co-owner of Each Peach Market and Pear Plum Cafe, plus Lullabelle's Sweet Shop, in Mt. Pleasant, Washington, DC. Emily has offered to host a small group at her new Pear Plum Cafe. We'll enjoy a food and drink tasting, and hear from her about her experiences opening not one, not two, but three local businesses. 

We have limited spots for this event, so register now! Tickets are $15 and include heavy appetizers and drinks. Join us, then you can continue on with your Saturday evening plans! 

Background on Emily & her co-founder Jeanlouise Conaway: We met in 2002 in Washington, DC while working together on USAID projects in Africa. We both share a curiosity for how others live and passion for working to make the world a better place and have sought meaningful ways to do so throughout our working careers. We also feel a keen connection to nature, really love good food, and have a profound respect for where it comes from. We decided to open Each Peach Market because we want to share our love for good food and the DIY culinary spirit with our community. We wanted to create an approachable and warm shopping experience that highlights fresh, high quality, and local products.
