“Grandpa Jim’s Pure Maple Syrup” call… 651-633-5910 to order.

I talked to a senior who is known as “Grandpa Jim”.  He is still working at 72, driving a limo.  It didn’t take long to find out that what he really likes to do… make new connections with people allowing him the opportunity to help others in his own unique way.

He has been spending time at a wilderness camp in the summer for years, and they produce Pure Maple Syrup from the trees on the property in order to help fund the needs of the camp.  Jim decided that he would sell the syrup to help support the camp.  On his SUV it says, “Grandpa Jim’s Pure Maple Syrup” call… 651-633-5910 to order.  There is always has a case of the product in various sizes in Jim’s truck.

Recently, Jim met with leader from MN Teen Challenge to encourage them to sell the maple syrup at their events.  The idea was to use the profits to help fund the good work they do helping teens and adults struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.

I love Jim’s enthusiasm and creativity. May his tribe increase!
