Why the name?
Demeter is the Greek goddess of agriculture. Hades, god of the Underworld where the dead roam, took her beloved daughter Persephone. It is said that every winter Demeter is so filled with grief that no crop or tree lives. After a divine agreement, Persephone may return to the world, where her mother waits with open arms and prosperity returns.
We were so moved by this story that no other name could capture our mission. We want to bring abundance to this world, as the Muses sang, and to avoid blight.
