Life of Riley Foods
Specialty small-batch nut butters, with interesting twists. The cashew butter, for example, contains two kinds of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, other spices, and honey. Their sunberry butter has bits of dried cherries and strawberries. “We promote the good life through good food. We craft our small-batch specialty nut butters using only the highest quality ingredients to create unique blends inspired by our passion for superb eats and healthy living. We source local, organic, non-GMO ingredients wherever possible, and our products are always gluten, grain, soy, dairy, and artificial stuff-free, sweetened only with touches of pure maple sugar, raw honey or dried fruit.”
Hive Mind Bee Pollen
Purveyors of high quality raw bee pollen from California honey bees, collected by family-run beekeepers. “Our product is 100% California-raised, fresh, raw and cold stored directly from the hive until shipped to your door.”
The Joinery
“Solid Wood Furniture for Life…The Joinery designs and handcrafts beautiful hardwood furniture for residential and commercial spaces. Using traditional woodworking techniques and hardwoods from sustainable forest resources, each piece of Joinery’s wood furniture is wholly built and proudly signed by an individual builder in our Portland, Oregon wood shop. All of our handmade furniture for the home is warranted for a lifetime of real-world use.” These pieces are simply beautiful. Sustainably harvested woods are finished with their own linseed/tung/citrus/soy blend (no solvents), then sanded and finished with their own beeswax/citrus wax. Customer service told me “new pieces do have a smell to it, but if people are sensitive, we can hold the pieces here they have purchased until the smell is gone.”

A & B American Style
They had me with their headline: “Our mission is to take sugar out of the American diet.” They make all-natural condiments using real, whole ingredients. No sugar. Nothing artificial. At the moment it’s a few pepper sauces. But I hope they do more and go organic.

Cultures for Health
The best way for me to describe this website is “organic do-it-yourself heaven!” They sell all kinds of DIY for making foods like fermented foods, cheesemaking, brewing, sprouting, and more. Their message is You Can Do This yourself at home, and they provide everything from supplies to instructions to cheering you on. I love this site and can’t wait to use it to make these foods myself.
Coconut Secret
Delicious condiments made from the sap of the coconut tree, using raw methods aging or evaporating at low temperatures. Their Coconut Aminos is one of my favorite condiments—slightly sweet with very low carbs. They also make Coconut Vinegar, Coconut Nectar (sweetener) and coconut crystals (sweetener). Read their website for lots of information about coconut nutrition and harvesting.
