About Us
A Turnip Tale
A turnip is a vegetable whose, flavor is distinctive and unique…even a bit peculiar to some. It comes in many wonderful shades of purple, and white, and is very interesting to look at…but you rarely see turnips served on anyone’s table. While you can find “peas and carrots” wherever you dine…a turnip is rare and you may need to search and seek to find it. You may need to special order it or perhaps, even grow it in your own garden…thus the flavor and mission of Tiny Turnip. Our mission is to offer unique, rare products and provide exceptional services. We strive to be different, unusual and remarkable.
We believe each of us is placed where we are, at the time we are for a reason and purpose. Created individually and uniquely, designed with special talents, gifts and callings. Let’s not be “peas and carrots” but begin to embrace one another for our own unique qualities and gifts that we have been given. We are all turnips, after all.
The seeds of Tiny Turnip, were given to Rachel Luzi, born with a passion for creating, designing and illustrating. Following her passion, she was schooled in Art and Illustration, then began a career in Design. Upon becoming a Mom, she continued to take on creative projects and freelance work. Finally in 2003, the seeds of Tiny Turnip were planted. While pregnant with baby #2, Rachel started Tiny Turnip. Teaming up with her Mom, Arlene, a designer at heart, who was taught pattern making and sewing, by her Mother, Sarah. So, it is our desire to use our God given gifts and encourage others to use their unique talents as well.
10% of our profits go towards helping a specific non profit group to grow their ministry. Gradually we are hoping to increase this percentage. Currently we are sponsoring For the Kids of Katrina. An organization that "Builds Hope by Building Playgrounds" for the kids still effected by the devistation of Katrina.
The Red Rope is a Christian non- profit organization who works closely with shelters for women and children, teenage pregnancy, senior citizens and the homeless population, providing opportunities within it’s community to reach out to those in need. To learn more please visit rahabslegacy.com.
