Description
When was the last time you knew the person harvesting the ingredients in food and really knew what’s in it? At Roots and All, we believe in ethically sourced, farm-to-table products. That’s why we personally partner with family farmers to truly know who where- and who- our food comes from. We’re trying to redefine traceability by seeing our choices and purchases serve needs beyond our own. Good can come from even the smallest acts of kindness. For every 2,000 jars sold, WE BUILD A HOME for one of our family farmers in the Dominican Republic. Our virgin, USDA-certified organic, pure, vegan, unrefined, raw, coconut oil is sustainably sourced and hand picked from family owned certified Fair Trade farms in the lush, coastal grounds of El Seibo and bottled fresh in San Pedro De Macorís. Only the ripest coconuts are cold pressed and bottled within hours of harvesting. Our rich aroma and silky texture is as pleasing on the taste buds as it it on the nose. For generations our farmers have worked the soil and trees, harvesting by hand with great respect for our planet’s resources and future. We are connected to the soil and sustainable growing methods, using no pesticides, no additives, and no genetic modification. These sustainable harvesting and bottling practices ensure freshly-picked coconuts are cold pressed within hours of harvesting to preserve the raw, unrefined, rich, intoxicating coconutty flavor that has to be tasted to be believed. Use this spectacular oil for superior results in both cooking and baking, guaranteed. Vegan, kosher, paleogenic, and ketogenic diet approved. Our pure oil also contains deep-conditioning properties and nutrients to nourish and revitalize the hair, skin and face. Use it as a hair mask for shiny, healthy, hair and stimulated growth; or as a natural, chemical-free moisturizer. It’s an amazingly versatile staple for your home, that builds homes.
