New Product! The Philosopher's Stoneground is an artisanal food company based in Santa Cruz producing small batch sprouted nut and seed butters. Raw certified organic almonds and the low speed, low temperature, traditional process of stone grinding preserves enzymes, nutrients, and vitality. The enzymatic process pre-digests some of the carbohydrates as well as eliminates phytic acid, making this product sweeter, more digestible, and more nutritious than nut butters made from dormant or dead seeds. This is a silky smooth liquid texture nut butter combines the naturally sweeter flavor of the sprouted almonds with cacao paste and a whisper of residual sea salt from the soaking process.

Ingredients: sprouted organic almonds, organic cacao paste, organic coconut sugar, organic vanilla extract, residual sea salt from the soaking process
This trio makes a great host gift for Holiday parties! Alice Rosenthal, beekeeper and rescuer, likes to think of honey as in Forest Gump's famous line, "Local honey is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you might get". The beauty and surprise behind local wildflower honey is - you just don't know what you're gonna get. But one thing for sure - they are all going to taste great and different from each other. Alice of Golden Gate Neighborhood Honey, maintains slightly over 100 hives in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. The majority of maintained hives are from West Richmond, Upper Fruitvale, and North Oakland/South Berkeley. Most are wild honey that was harvested while rescuing and relocating honey bees in naturally occurring hives. The honey is processed differently when it is harvested from a wild environment. There are no frames to support the comb it must then be crushed (with hands) to liberate the honey. While harvesting the honey, small amounts of pollen and wax enter into the honey. Her efforts are helping our local bee populations happy and healthy.
Let's support her in keeping our local trees pollinated! These Jars are randomly picked form her many Wild harvests and make a great sampler of the huge varieties in flavor color and texture. The trios are random selections of three varieties: Hercules, Richmond Marina, El Sobrante, El Cerrito, Albany, Berkeley, Rockridge, Montclair, Fruitvale, Hayward, Claremont.

The honey is processed differently when it is harvested from a wild environment. Because there are no frames to support the comb it must be crushed (with hands) to liberate the honey. While harvesting the honey in this manner, small amounts of pollen and wax are blended into the honey. We will rotate the varieties each week. In our returnable 1/2 pint Jars!
