MEET THE FOUNDERS
Why We Started & Where We’re Going
In 2023, Megan Burrows, owner of Burrow & Vine, envisioned an event to highlight women-owned businesses in her downtown community for International Women’s Day. With a significant number of small businesses being women-owned and operated, this became a natural opportunity to amplify their journeys and successes. The event’s overwhelming success and collaboration inspired Megan to expand the vision for 2024.
To take it to the next level, she partnered with Joa Garcia, founder of Prism Consulting, and Breanna Decker-Grant, founder of Juniper Lane, to enhance the event’s impact and streamline logistics. Together, they curated a weekend filled with live music, pop-up vendors, expert panels, and more, bringing new energy and growth to the celebration.
As the team looks ahead to 2025, the vision has evolved to meet a growing need in the local market. Women entrepreneurs seek community, accountability, education, and opportunities for growth. What began as a single weekend event is now expanding into a year-round organization dedicated to supporting women in business. While the International Women’s Day weekend remains a cornerstone event, the organization will now offer ongoing programming, events, and membership resources to foster lasting connections and support.
