Hello!

Feels like June in Portland has arrived with a mix of immediacy and surprise, bringing enough early sun to make us wonder what city we're in, followed by days of good old fashioned NW rain to remind us that indeed we are home. Honey Mama's has been in full swing amidst it all starting on the 1st by vending at the Rugged Maniac, a wild and crazy 5K obstacle race (that will be back again next year), followed by farmers markets and a paced outreach to growing our grocery store network ~ I Hope your summer days are off to a full yet grounded start as well and that you are able to enjoy the many facets that the month will inevitably bring our way! Here's what's happening:

News From The Kitchen

I'm playing around this summer with a some ingredients for new Nectar Fudge bars that include even more superfoods, and right now my attention is on Maca Root!
There isn't a whole lot of flavor in this gem of a Peruvian root powder outside of a little maltiness but the physiological bliss is delicious. It is known as an adaptogen for its ability to increase the body's resistance to stress, anxiety, and fatigue, and it restores our aging hormonal system back to that of its younger years by strengthening and toning our entire endocrine system. It promotes greater energy and stamina and rebuilds our adrenal glands. And paired with raw honey, raw cocoa and savory spices?!? ..there may be some new harmony coming your way this fall. I'll let you know when it's dialed in and on the shelves!

Why Organic, Raw and Unrefined?

We choose locally sourced, raw, unrefined, sprouted, organic, alkaline forming ingredients for their quality of flavor and to encourage your ability to thrive!

ORGANIC

Organic farming mirrors these attributes by offering non toxic, nutrient dense, flavor rich foods that are grown by using practices that sustain life, harmony and balance. Nuff said.

RAW & UNREFINED

During the refinement process foods are often heated, bleached, and filtered through toxic substances to give them the appearance of being cleaner, clearer and more pure; ironically, this process can strip food of all or most of it’s vital flavors and nutrients. When we allow our food to remain in a natural, unrefined state, we are able to reap the benefits of higher nutritional value, ease in digestion and absorption, and non toxicity.
