Our Story
by Dawn Chesser, Co-Founder & President
Hi there! We are the Chesser family and this is our story of how we came to make these healthy, yummy snacks!
Our journey began on a cold December day back in 2013. My husband, Craig, and I found ourselves sitting in a small doctor’s office being told the words no one ever wants to hear - “you have cancer.” Later that month I underwent a very long surgery to remove my thyroid and affected lymph nodes - Merry Christmas to me (note the sarcasm)!
The two years following my diagnosis and surgery, I endured a seemingly endless schedule of doctors’ appointments, radiation treatments, body scans, and isolation before finally getting to hear the sweet words - “ALL CLEAR.” But I wasn't out of the woods yet...
Fast-forward to November of 2018, and it was time for the “big one” - the five-year milestone scan. I went through all of the rigorous preparation and isolation just as before and we again got to hear those wonderful words - “ALL CLEAR!” And while it was a huge relief to finally conquer cancer, we were still burdened with thousands of dollars in medical bills associated with my years of treatment. So, filled with a weird combination of both frustration and hope, I came up with a side (or Sixth Day) project to produce and sell the snacks that I had been making for our own family for years.
So, at the beginning of 2019, we formed our little family business - Sixth Day Snacks! And we now offer a full line of restaurant-style salsas in differing heats, uniquely flavored hummus, as well as sweetly satisfying granola bites, and guilty pleasures like candied and pickled jalapenos!
Our mission here at Sixth Day Snacks is simple - to offer healthy, yummy snacks that everyone can enjoy! So, we invite you to give us a try - come taste and see how good life is!
P.S. We will also add that Craig (Bat Dad) and Dawn are also the proud owners of the Next Step Kitchen, a co-working rentable commercial kitchen that rotates new businesses through a partnership with the RDFM! And Dawn has a killer enchilada recipe
