About Origine:
Origine is a spice brand based in regenerative, sustainable agriculture that produces high-quality, culinary flavors with an emphasis on holistic wellness. As we break into the consumer market we’re looking to partner with like-minded foodies to experiment with our products, whip up delicious creations, and share the love of sustainability and good food with our community. That’s where you come in!
What makes Origine Different:
Traceability: We work on site in Indonesia with small, local farmers to provide support, regenerative agriculture trainings, fair wages, and donations to community improvement initiatives such as eyesight assessments and seedling distributions.
Superfood Wellness: Each of our products boasts a unique set of health benefits! We ensure the farming and processing of each of our spices creates the highest quality botanical products for our wellbeing.
Sustainable Agriculture: Each product we offer is grown using regenerative agricultural practices; we use organic fertilizer, non-gmo seeds, poly-cropping methods, and replant over 100% of the trees we harvest to ensure the soil is healthy for generations to come.
Expectations:
To maintain the benefits of active membership, the Tastemaker will create and post at least one unique recipe per month using Origine ingredients to a blog and/or Instagram account and produce a minimum of four unique recipes per quarter.
