Our Story
Cherie Mione
Founder & CEO of Garden Diva Hummus
For over a decade, Cherie Mione has been crafting bold, wholesome flavors in South Florida. What started as a mission to create healthy snacks for her family and friends blossomed into Garden Diva Hummus—a beloved local brand born in her kitchen. Dissatisfied with store-bought options, Cherie perfected her recipes using fresh, plant-based ingredients, testing every batch with friends until they were just right.
By 2015, her small-batch hummus captivated taste buds at farmers’ markets like Hollywood’s Yellow Green Market, where Cherie personally dished out samples every weekend. With zero preservatives and a focus on quality, her vibrant flavors—like savory Umami and zesty Cilantro-Jalapeño—quickly won over locals.
In 2020, Cherie expanded with a food truck, serving globally inspired dishes like vegan crunchwraps, veggie empanadas and avocado fries alongside her 11 hummus varieties. While 100% plant-based, Garden Diva hummus is designed for everyone: spread it on sandwiches, pair it with your favorite proteins, or enjoy it straight from the tub!
Today, Cherie stays true to her roots: small batches, fresh ingredients, and a commitment to bringing people together through food. From markets to food truck festivals, Garden Diva Hummus is a South Florida staple—proof that healthy eating can be delicious, fun, and anything but boring.
“It’s not just food—it’s a celebration of flavor and wellness.” – Cherie Mione
