Michelle Walrath
Founder & CEO, Organic Krush Lifestyle Eatery

Michelle has a background in health, women’s issues, and education. When she had her first child in 2001, Michelle became vigilant about what was going into their systems due to her concerns about the widespread use of pesticides and GMOs. As she focused on providing a healthy and organic diet for her children, she noted the lack of access to healthy organic food in her community and beyond. In 2014 Michelle and her co-founder and longtime friend, Fran Paniccia decided to embark on a new venture, Organic Krush. Their goal was to make organic, healthy food more accessible. Today, Michelle and Fran operate ten Organic Krush locations throughout New York, Connecticut, and Virginia.
