Handmade Granola from the Tennessee Valley.
is carefully handmade in the on-site kitchen at the Blue Monarch facility. Our granola is extra special, because while it is toasty, delicious and all-natural, each package of granola also tells the story of one of the Blue Monarch women who baked it, along with her touching testimony of recovery.

My name is Jennifer. I was arrested three days after I tried meth for the first time. Not even a year later, I was thrown from a car and nearly died. Two of my friends died. About a year later, I was arrested again. Ten months later, I’m clean and am making granola for The Blue Chair, while living at Blue Monarch. This is my first real job, and I love it! I have grown so much at Blue Monarch. This place has really turned me around. My mother says she’s proud of me – and now she has a reason to be.
I'm Stacy. I've been on and off drugs for years, but after my oldest brother died in a car accident, I turned to meth. I thought it would take away the pain, but it got worse. I eventually landed myself in jail. I thought there was no hope for me. But now that I’m here at Blue Monarch, there’s hope for a good future for me and my kids. I am so thankful that I get to be here and have this great job baking granola for The Blue Chair. I love working and feeling independent instead of dependent on drugs.
