OUR IMPACT
And why it's so important to us.
responsibly sourced, sustainably made
Throughout the years, we've grown, not just as a brand, but also in our efforts to continue to reduce our environmental impact in more ways than one.
our farmers
We know our farmers. We believe in the importance of meaningful connections created by food at the dinner table, in the fields or in our plant. Sourcing locally helps reduce our carbon footprint while also fostering and supporting local businesses
WHY FAVA BEANS?
When farmers grow fava beans, they are actually restoring the soil that the plants grow in—it’s the highest nitrogen-fixing pulse around, meaning that rather than depleting the soil of nutrients, fava beans push nutrients back into the soil. Fava also thrives in cool, wet weather, is extremely hardy, and is a natural choice for a healthy crop rotation.
Aside from fava beans being considered the crop of the future for its sustainability, it is also one of the most nutrient-dense pulses.
We are proud to source glyphosate-free fava beans from a woman-owned, regenerative, and local farm.
WHY MUSHROOMS?
At Big Mountain Foods, we believe that every ingredient should be chosen with care and intention. That's why we've chosen to incorporate the magical Lion's Mane mushroom into our recipes. Known for its cognitive-boosting properties, this magnificent mushroom is a true champion of wellness, helping to nourish both body and soul with its delicate and earthy flavor profile.
