This co-op employs over 200 farmers, supporting their local communities and pushing money back into the local economy helping to raise the standard of living.

We go above and beyond to source our ingredients ethically to ensure the highest quality at a great price!

We recommend that you avoid being exposed to sunlight directly after using the oil and diluting it at 0.6% if you wish to use it topically.

Store in a cool dry place away from sunlight.
