Almost 20 years ago I started my company, Newman’s Own Organics not because I wanted to make a lot of money, or be known for my business acumen; I started it to have a way to affect positive change. With my father Paul Newman’s, initial support, my partner Pete Meehan and I have created a company that makes great food with primarily organic ingredients in an effort to help people see that organic food can taste amazing.

My passions include fishing, surfing, cooking, eating, sustainable agriculture, travel and philanthropy. I’ll do my best to share a bit about all these interests through articles, recipes, videos and photos. Obviously, I hope you enjoy it and pass it along to others…  XOXO Nell
