Great salsa starts with great ingredients.
We source nearly all (98%) of our produce from farms within 50 miles of our kitchen in Sonoma County, California — chosen for flavor, freshness, and the way they’re grown.
We work with small farms in Sonoma County and Northern California who prioritize:
Sustainable farming practices
Soil health
Flavor-first growing
- Lazaro from The Patch based in Sonoma grows beautiful tomatoes
- Manuel from Reyes farm in Windsor is growing tomatillos and chiles for our salsas.
- Farmer Birgit and Farmer Gabriel of Summerfield Biodynamic Farm are providing us with an array of colorful biodynamic tomatoes .
- Will from Longer Table Farm based in Sebastopol grows a variety of organic sweet and hot chiles, tomatillos, and tomatoes.
- Will from Worker Bee Farm in Freestone
We are always looking for new folks to collaborate with and source from, so please reach out.
WHAT GOES INTO EACH JAR?
Simple ingredients, sourced with intention:
- Tomatoes — peak-season, sun-ripened, never sprayed.
- Tomatillos — bright, fresh, and tart. We prefer the heirloom varieties for flavor.
- Fresh Chiles — locally grown when in season.
- Dried Chiles — sourced from trusted partners in Mexico.
- Garlic — grown close to home.
- Olive Oils — selected for quality, and organic growing practices. Never seed oils.
No added sugar. No shortcuts. Just real whole ingredients.
Prioritize organic or practicing organic farms
Source as locally as possible
Choose flavor over uniformity
Support small-scale growers
Working toward 100% organic
TRANSPARENCY
We are not yet 100% certified organic.
Sourcing certified organic chiles from Mexico at the quality we require is still a challenge — but we’re actively working toward it as we grow.
Today, the majority of our ingredients are organic or grown using sustainable practices.
FROM FARM TO JAR
Every jar starts with beautiful ripe produce in the field and ends at your table.
When you cook with our salsa, you’re supporting farmers, thoughtful sourcing, and a better way of making food.
Why does our salsa taste different? When high quality ingredients are harvested at peak ripeness and used quickly, you can taste it.
Brighter. Fresher. More alive. This what makes our salsa stand out. This is what makes our salsa the best.
