Sustainability

Our commitment to the environment is a driving force behind Le Prunier. So much of what our family does depends on our beautiful earth. From start to finish, our products remain ethical, eco-friendly and organic so that you reap the benefits in every last drop and together, we continue to protect our source.

OUR PRODUCTS ARE ALL NATURAL, ORGANIC, SUSTAINABLE, VEGAN AND CRUELTY-FREE.

We are a brand, a family and a farm that is redefining beauty through our unwavering commitment to sustainability.

ORGANIC

Our family has been committed to organic farming since the 1980’s - long before the term was a household phrase. We are an herbicide-free farm meaning our soil is extremely healthy plus we use all natural methods for fertilization including compost, cover crops, fertilizer and heat-treated chicken manure. We never test on animals and are Cruelty-Free PETA certified as well!

Upcycling

We use 100% up-cycled plum kernels which were previously a waste byproduct on the family farm. We’ve committed ourselves to eliminating waste by discovering innovative and sustainable plum-based ingredients using byproducts from our 100-year-old organic family farm.
 

OUR INNOVATIVE SUSTAINABILITY PRACTICES

BioFiltro

We use a revolutionary waste-water system called BioFiltro in order to treat our processing water. This water is altered to remove solids, then sprinkled over thick, layered beds of earthworms, wood shavings, and river rock. The worms digest the biomass and produce castings; the water filters through the layers, emerging for orchard use.

Solar

For over 10 years, our processing facility has been 100% solar powered. Solar power is one of the cleanest, most sustainable and most renewable resources in the world. It has also slashed our farm's energy bills and reduced our carbon footprint.

Goats

At the end of harvest, we also allow 2,000 goats to roam through the orchards eating down the excess cover crops which eliminates the need for machinery. Without heavy machinery, we reduce emissions and leave the soil healthier. Good for the goats, good for us. It’s a win-win.

Carbon Neutral Shipping
When you place your order we give you the option to offset the carbon footprint of your order. Eco-Cart will calculate the exact cost of offsetting emissions from manufacturing and shipping on each order, usually adding 1-2% to the total. Simply opt-in at checkout.

Recycling your bottles and packaging is easy!

Our bottles are 100% recyclable although we encourage repurposing! Our secondary boxes are decorated using eco-friendly ink, while our corrugated mailers are made from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified board. We also recycle all cardboard materials on the family farm.
