SOURCING & SUSTAINABILITY

SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESSES

We aim to support as many other local businesses as we can. We believe in investing in our community and uplifting artisans around us.

SUPPORTING SOUTHERN BUSINESSES

We aim to support small businesses within the communities that we are inspired by and come from. We make sure that these businesses have ideals that align with ours.

SUPPORTING FAIR LABOR

When we are working with imported ingredients, we work with brands and importers that are transparent when it comes to their business practices. We look for fair trade ingredients, but we strive to be even more committed than that. We especially are interested in working with imported ingredients that are community driven where they come from. We want to support and uplift marginalized communities around the world.

SUPPORTING DIVERSE AGRICULTURE

Whenever possible, we buy produce that is heirloom, wild, or unique. We believe that by utilizing diverse and lesser used ingredients, we are not only elevating unique ingredients, but also supporting an agricultural landscape that is more diverse, and therefore less prone to disease.

MINIMIZING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

We buy from producers that are organic, regenerative, and environmentally responsible. We look for transparency when it comes to carbon and greenhouse gas emissions. We look for sustainable farming and foraging practices so that we minimize negative impact on wildlife.
