Juniper Core Values Blog Series: Ethical Sourcing

Posted by Sarah Beyers on Nov 27th 2023

In conclusion of our ‘Values Series’ blog posts, we now arrive at our supply chain. We want to share the companies that we source some of the finishing touches for our products from, so you can trust that every part of your purchase comes from an ethical source. At Juniper Farm, ethical sourcing is not just a core value; it's a way of life. This commitment to ethical practices extends from the very seeds planted in our fields to the finishing touches that adorn our products. In this blog post, we'll delve into how we uphold our pledge to source ethically and introduce you to the remarkable partners who contribute to the farm's journey—Golden Hour Farm, Star Bright Farm, Diaspora, Fillmore Container, and AlphaGraphics.

Golden Hour Farm

Golden Hour Farm is more than just a supplier; it's a partner in our shared commitment to sustainable agriculture and connecting with the earth and one’s healing journey. Golden Hour Farm follows organic farming practices, ensuring that the herbs and spices harvested are free from harmful pesticides and chemicals. This partnership not only guarantees the purity of Juniper Farm's products but also supports local farmers who share the same dedication to environmental stewardship and mind-body wellness.

Star Bright Farm

Located right here in Maryland, Star Bright Farm’s beautiful offerings bring a celestial touch to Juniper’s product line. Star Bright Farm, with its commitment to biodiversity and regenerative agriculture, provides us with an abundance of extra herbs that elevate the aromatic profile of the farm's products. The collaboration with Star Bright Farm extends beyond a mere supplier relationship. It's a shared journey towards sustainable agriculture, where the farm's commitment to nurturing the land is mirrored by Star Bright Farm's dedication to preserving biodiversity. By sourcing extra herbs from Star Bright Farm, Juniper Farm not only enhances the quality of its products but also supports a local partner that embodies the essence of ethical farming.

Diaspora

Sourcing directly from small, sustainable farms around the world, Diaspora ensures that each spice comes with a narrative that respects the communities and environments it originates from. Through this collaboration, Juniper Farm not only enriches its products with exotic flavors but also contributes to fair trade and ethical practices on a global scale. From the rich soils of India to the sun-drenched fields of Ethiopia, Diaspora ensures that the journey of each spice is not just a path from farm to table but a narrative of communities and cultures.

Fillmore Container

Our commitment to ethical sourcing extends beyond the fields and into the packaging with Fillmore Container. By choosing a local supplier, we reduce our carbon footprint and support the local community. Fillmore Container's dedication to eco-friendly packaging aligns seamlessly with Juniper Farm's values, ensuring that the farm's products are not only ethically sourced but also responsibly packaged.

AlphaGraphics

When it comes to the finishing touches on product presentation, we rely on AlphaGraphics. This local printing partner shares Juniper Farm's commitment to quality and attention to detail. By choosing a nearby printing solution, not only are we supporting local businesses but also reducing transportation-related environmental impact.

In conclusion, from the fields to the final product, our journey exemplifies the transformative power of ethical collaborations, proving that a commitment to the earth can yield products that are not only superior in quality but also ethically sound.
