Ep. 191 - Sweet Home Smilax with Jordan Prosser of Salters Evergreen
The Fresh Bunch is back and bringing the laughs — even though we are missing Mike! This week, we’re hanging out with Jordan Prosser of Salters Evergreen, the Alabama Smilax Specialist. Jordan gives us the lowdown on Smilax, his Next Gen family roots in the industry, and promises (again) — no snakes in the boxes!
Things get festive as we talk Christmas decorations, the Wedding MBA show, and try to keep a straight face while Ryan and Joel play with a voice-altering gadget that Connor found on TikTok. Let’s just say at one point, everyone sounded like they were auditioning to be the movie trailer guy: “In a world... where Smilax reigns supreme…”
Meanwhile, Jason gets down to business with some cool talk about Jet Fresh Refrigerated Services and cross-docking.
It’s a holly-jolly, deep-voiced, Smilax-filled episode of The Fresh Bunch — you don’t want to miss this one!
