Where do you source ingredients from?
Where do you source ingredients from?
I source the highest quality ingredients from a range of locations including Thrive Market, Mother's Market, Trader Joe's, Fullscript (online dispensary for some herbal ingredients), and my local farmer's market. When it comes to nuts, seeds and fruit, I only include the freshest ingredients that I taste-test and would consume myself.

While the product is not certified organic, 95% of ingredients I use are certified organic. The other 5% of ingredients may not have an organic certification but they are grown with organic methods (e.g. walnuts sourced from a local vendor at the farmer's market).

The only substitution that I can accommodate is swapping one sweetener type for another (e.g. maple or date syrup in place of honey).
