This duo came up with the idea of this company after realizing the entertainment options for the people were close to nil due to the pandemic restrictions. Due to this, people were opting to go for drives and road trips, and they just wanted to add some spice and fun to their drives. Hence, The Picnic Company. The spots they choose aren’t too far from the city but are hidden beauties nonetheless. A few locations to be named are wineries, vineyards, breweries and private farms.
