Bronzestone Seeks Hummus Gold
Heath Barnes and Tish Ghigleri used to make a living shipping Palouse-grown chickpeas across
the country. Now they’re diverting some of those shipments into hummus for Inland Northwest eaters with their new business, Bronzestone Corp. Barnes and Ghigleri, who worked for the Pacific Northwest Farmers
Cooperative in Genesee, Idaho, say they were struck by how much of the
local chickpea crop was shipped across the country to hummus makers. Barnes was a commodities merchandiser and Ghigleri a logistics
coordinator for the cooperative until six months ago, when they left to
focus on their new business/
