About Us

Ben being interviewed on the radio at the Hammondsport Festival of Crafts in 2024

I was obsessed with golf. After graduating from Hammondsport, I attended St. Bonaventure University with the aspirations of play Division 1 golf. Those dreams were diverted when I was injured in 2022. Lost, with so much time on my hands, I needed to focus in on another passion I had always had. Owning my own business.

I was never comfortable sitting in a classroom and always looked for ways to create value. The story goes that when I was little, my grandfather told me he would pay me a nickel for every stick that I picked up. I proceeded to pick up sticks and break them in half.

So, why did I start a clothing company? I have always loved t-shirts. A few years before starting, my dad came up with the idea of Cuke-Ahh and a cucumber doing different lake activities. That is when the light bulb went off.

With all the time on my hands, I taught myself graphic design and all the other processes of starting your own business.

Thank you for all your continued support so that I can live out my dream. Though the path was unexpected to get to this point, I thank God for this opportunity.
