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.
Certified Organic
Nature At It’s Purest
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.
Upcycling
Nothing to Waste
We use 100% upcycled 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.
The Farm
Regenerative Farming
We operate as a vertically integrated regenerative farm dedicated to the full control of our supply chain from raw materials through to manufacturing. We use 100% up-cycled plum kernels which were previously a waste byproduct and have committed ourselves to eliminating waste by discovering innovative and sustainable plum-based ingredients using byproducts from our family farm.
Renewable Practices
Lowering Our Carbon Footprint
We’re commited to lowering our carbon footprint through innovative renewable practices giving us the means to be more efficient while lowering our impact and reliance on machines and pesticides.
Water Recycling
We use a revolutionary waste-water system called BioFiltro that uses earthworms to treat our processing water.
Solar Energy
For over 12 years, our processing facility has been 100% solar powered allowing us to reduce our carbon footprint.
Natural Harvesting
Our herd of 200 Dorper sheep eat down excess cover crops after harvest, eliminating the need for heavy machinery and leaving the soil healthier.
RENEWABLE PRACTICES
Carbon Neutral Shipping
Le Prunier has been supporting carbon removal since 2020 totaling 395,000 lbs Co2 offset. Through our new partnership with Route, we are now offering complimentary 100% carbon neutral shipping by supporting the planting of eucalyptus trees at the Fazenda Nascente Do Luar Project in central-west Brazil, alongside guaranteed Package Protection and instant resolution of shipping issues.
Route's partnership with Patch, a platform with an end goal of achieving negative emissions, ensures every time a purchase is made from Le Prunier, a contribution is made towards combatting carbon emissions created by the shipping industry. We’re honored to launch this initiative with Route on Earth Day!
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Our Packaging
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.
