Meet Nathan Brandes, a longtime Food Shifter and founder of @upcountrycreamery. He’s sweetening our UPLIFT With Food Shift campaign with a homemade ice cream tasting party (in San Francisco) for lucky donors. Inspired by his Maui roots and love of local ingredients, his exclusive flavors like “Walk in the Forest” (guess what the mystery ingredient is). Through @upcountrycreamery, he is supporting food justice—one scoop at a time.Donate or pledge any amount before September 30th, 2025 to enter into a drawing to win this unique experience. Want to lock in an invite for this tasting? Be one of the first 7 (spots are closing fast!) Food Shift supporters to donate or pledge $250 to be treated to flavors ranging from Cookies & Cream (where he makes his own “Oreo”) to unique creations like “The Cheese Board” made with Cowgirl Creamery’s Mt. Tam cheese and fig jam, our Executive Director’s favorite. You can also place an order for a custom flavor for an additional $50 for a tub you can enjoy at home. #donate #support #UPLIFTcampaign #nonprofit #foodshift #icecream #icecreamtreat #uplift2025campaign ...
