Founder' Story

Hey everyone, I’m Megan! I’m the owner of Ground North Co. & 701 Nutrition. I grew up in Fullerton, ND and later attended UND, where I studied Criminal Justice & Forensic Science. Life eventually brought me back home, where I met my husband, Brandon. We now farm together and raise our four children: Owen (15), Faith (14), Vivian (10), and Charlie (7).

Coffee has always been a staple in my life. Family gatherings weren’t complete without a pot brewing, no matter the time of day. So when the opportunity came to open a space in town, I knew it was time to bring a coffee shop to our community. That’s how Ground North began!

Fast forward a couple of years, and I realized our little town was missing something more. We needed another place to shop local, clothes, gifts, and everyday favorites that felt personal and unique. That’s when the boutique came to life!

Now, six years later, Ground North continues to grow as both a coffee shop and a boutique. Serving our community with caffeine, style, and connection!
