Cocoa from Cocoa Supply, a family business in New York that ethically sources quality ingredients from sustainable farms.

We source Kernza® Perennial Grain from the city of Edgerton, MN. Their Kernza field surrounds the city’s drinking water wells.

These roots build soil, prevent water pollution, sequester carbon, and grow a plant that produces a healthy, delicious grain.
