Every crop begins with hope 🌾

There's something almost sacred about watching a field wake up each season. Farmers like Jed start with nothing more than turned soil and a handful of seed, and then they wait, watch, and trust. Watching that transformation unfold, week after week, never loses its wonder. It's a quiet reminder that we're all part of something so much bigger than ourselves.

Organic farming isn't the easy road. It demands a deep, personal commitment to the land and far more hands-on management than conventional methods ever ask for. There's no shortcut spray, no quick fix, just careful observation, patient problem-solving, and a real trust in the natural processes that make growth possible in the first place. Every decision is made with the long-term health of the soil in mind, not just this season's yield.

It's labour-intensive. It's expensive. It asks more of the farmer at every single stage. But there's a deep reward in knowing that each seed planted is grown exactly the way nature intended, no shortcuts, just time, care, and a whole lot of dirt under the fingernails.

That's the story behind every organic harvest: not just food, but a season-long act of faith in the land. 🌱

Ever wonder what actually separates organic oats from the regular kind? 👀

It's not just a label, it's the entire way a farm is run, and Jed Franklin is a great example of what that looks like in practice. Some of you already know him as our organic oat farmer. If you're new here, here's the short version: he's the reason our oats are as clean as they are.

Our relationship with Jed goes back over a decade. We first visited his farm in 2011, and this year, in 2025, we made the trip again. What we found was a farm that has stayed true to its roots: no synthetic pesticides, no chemical fertilizers, just healthy soil, careful crop rotation, and a lot of hard-earned experience.

So why does organic farming matter, beyond the label? It comes down to what actually ends up on your plate, and in your gut.

Conventionally farmed grains can carry trace residues from synthetic pesticides and herbicides, which research suggests may disrupt the delicate balance of bacteria in our gut microbiome. Our gut isn't just about digestion. It's deeply connected to our immune system, our energy levels, and even our mood.

When we eat clean, minimally processed ingredients, we're giving our bodies whole, unaltered nutrition that's easier to digest. Organic oats are also grown in soil that's been nurtured over years without chemical inputs, which means richer biodiversity in the soil itself, something many experts believe translates into more nutrient-dense crops.

For us, working with a farmer like Jed isn't just about sourcing an ingredient. It's about knowing exactly where our oats come from, trusting the process behind them, and believing that what's good for the land is good for our bodies too.

Next time you enjoy something made with our oats, know that it's farmers like Jed that grow our ingredients with care, harvest them with integrity so that we can bring clean and safe food to your table.

🌾 Organic oats take time to grow the right way.

Jed Franklin, the farmer behind our organic oats, has been farming organically for 15 years - and his focus has always been simple: healthy soil grows better food.

Jed's farm sits in the Peace River region of BC, home to roughly 80% of the province's agricultural land. It's some of the richest growing ground in BC, and Jed treats it that way - with practices built around patience rather than shortcuts.

While conventional farming often relies on synthetic fertilizers for faster results, organic farming takes a longer road. One of Jed's go-to methods is crop rotation with alfalfa. Alfalfa roots host nitrogen-fixing bacteria that pull nitrogen straight from the air and lock it into the soil - naturally feeding the crops that follow for years to come. No synthetic inputs required, just smart planning and a little patience.

Jed's commitment to sustainability doesn't stop at the soil. His farm runs on 7 solar panels, which collect enough energy in the summer to offset the electricity used for drying grain later in the season - helping the operation run net zero.

He's also planted trees around the perimeter of his fields. It might look like simple landscaping, but those trees act as a natural buffer, helping reduce chemical drift from nearby conventional farms so it doesn't reach his organic crops.

As Jed explains, "Without healthy soil, we can't grow healthy food."

Organic farming may produce less per acre, but it supports nutrient-rich crops, protects pollinators like bees, and keeps the whole ecosystem a little healthier - season after season.

Every ingredient has a story that starts long before harvest. Jed's story just happens to include sunshine, alfalfa, and a few well-placed trees. 🌱

You've probably tasted bergamot, but have you ever seen it? 👀🍋‍🟩

It resembles a small, round yellow or green lemon, and its juice is famously too sour and bitter to eat raw. Bergamot grows on small evergreen trees in warm, Mediterranean-like climates in southern Italy which produce some of the most prized harvests in the world.

Unlike citrus grown for juice or flesh, bergamot is prized for one thing: its zest. Sharp, floral, and just a little bitter, it's the exact flavor profile that makes Earl Grey tea unmistakable and our Honey Bergamot Tea Granola so irresistible 🤌

But it's not an easy fruit to grow. The trees are slow-growing and incredibly sensitive to climate. It takes consistent warmth, mineral-rich soil, and hands-on care to develop the aromatic oils bergamot is known for. Even small shifts in weather can change the intensity of the oil extracted from the rind.

At One Degree Organics, every ingredient has a story. Scan the QR code on your bag of Sprouted Honey Bergamot Tea-Infused Granola to learn this one 🤳🥣

On the sunny slopes of Calabria, in the southwestern tip of Italy, the Cilione family has been cultivating citrus for six generations. It all started with Antonino Cilione, who passed his craft down to his son Enzo.

Today, Enzo's daughters, Luisa and Marika, are working right alongside him, poised to become the seventh generation to carry the family tradition forward. On a recent visit, we had the chance to meet Luisa, who welcomed us with a tour of the farm and gave us a firsthand look at the incredible work that goes into growing this special fruit.

While the Cilione family also grows organic lemons, mandarins, and oranges, it's their bergamot which they are known for. If you've never seen one, bergamot looks like a cross between a lime and an orange, but that's where the similarities end. Its signature aroma is what gives Earl Grey tea and our Honey Bergamot Tea Granola its distinct flavor, yet unlike oranges and lemons the fruit itself can't be eaten fresh off the tree.

All of bergamot's fragrant, citrusy flavor lives in the zest, and harvesting it takes real skill. Walking the orchards with Luisa, we learned just how much precision goes into hand-picking it at its peak in late fall and early spring, then carefully processing the fruit into oils that capture its full aromatic potential. It's a craft that's been perfected over generations.

Cilione grow some of the finest bergamot in the world, and being an organic farm helps preserve biodiversity. Spending time with Luisa gave us a firsthand look at the dedication and generations of craftsmanship that go into every harvest, and it's exactly why we're proud to partner with the Cilione family. Their bergamot is what gives our Honey Bergamot Tea-Infused Granola its signature flavor, and every batch is a reflection of the care this family pours into their land.

Next time you enjoy a bowl of our Honey Bergamot granola, you'll know exactly where that bright, citrusy flavor comes from 🥣

Meet the Family Behind Our Bergamot & Mandarin Oils 🍊🍋‍🟩

Every ingredient has a story, and this one begins in the sun-drenched hills of Calabria, Italy, where the Cilione family has been cultivating citrus for over six generations. Bergamot is one of the world's most unique citrus fruits. While it looks a bit like a small orange, it's prized not for its juice, but for the aromatic oil found in its peel.

💡Did you know that around 90–95% of the world's bergamot is grown in Calabria, where the region's unique combination of coastal breezes, mineral-rich soil, and Mediterranean climate creates ideal growing conditions.

The Cilione family has spent generations perfecting the art of growing these zesty fruits. Today, Enzo Cilione works alongside his daughters, Luisa and Marika, continuing a legacy that began with their ancestors.

Their orchards are home not only to bergamot but also to beautiful organic mandarins, lemons, and oranges. Every harvest is carefully timed because the highest quality essential oil comes from fruit picked at just the right stage of ripeness. The fragrant peel is then processed with exceptional care to preserve its bright, fresh aroma.

When you enjoy our Honey Bergamot Tea Granola or our Citrus Cashew Protein Granola, you're experiencing more than an exceptional citrus aroma. You're supporting ingredients that are grown with nature and your health in mind.

Wondering why so many people are choosing certified organic these days? We might have the answer…

In many conventional farming systems, synthetic herbicides such as glyphosate may be used as part of w**d management practices. While these inputs are widely regulated and used in agriculture, some people prefer to avoid them altogether.

Certified organic standards take a different approach: synthetic herbicides like glyphosate are not permitted. Organic farmers rely on methods like crop rotation, cover cropping, tillage, and building healthy, living soils to naturally support plant growth and manage w**ds. Now this is more labor-intensive, but the work pays off in every harvest.

At One Degree Organic Foods, we work exclusively with certified organic farmer partners who are committed to these standards. But we also go a step further, prioritizing transparency and traceability from seed to harvest. Our aim is simple: to help people understand not just what is in their food, but where it comes from and how it was grown.

That’s why we partner with organic farmers who share a commitment to soil health, sustainable practices, and ingredient integrity. Because we believe better farming practices start with better soil, and better food starts with better information.

Every ingredient has a story. When you choose organic, you’re also choosing a system that emphasizes prevention over chemicals, and long-term soil health over short-term fixes.

Celebrating Father’s Day by honoring all dads today 🧡

From the fields they tend to the families they cherish, fathers play an incredible role in shaping the lives and communities around them.

Today, we are proud to shine a spotlight on the fathers who make up our organic farming community. Farmers like Marcus Koenig, Brad Rabiey, Peter Wiebe, Eldon, David, Herman, and so many others bring dedication, passion, and purpose to the land every day.

Their commitment is reflected not only in the crops they grow, but in the families they raise and the example they set for future generations.

For many of these farmers, agriculture is more than a profession-it’s a way of life. Peter Wiebe’s father farmed before him, and his grandfather before that.

The same is true for Brad Rabiey, Eldon, Marcus, and many others whose roots run deep in the land they steward today. Their stories remind us that farming is built on generations of knowledge, sacrifice, and love.

Fatherhood comes in many forms. Whether you are a farmer, a work-from-home dad, a business owner, an essential worker, a mentor, or a father figure, your influence matters.

Thank you for the long hours, the lessons taught, the sacrifices made, and the unwavering support you provide to those who depend on you.

We hope your day has been filled with healthy food, laughter, meaningful moments, and time spent with the people you love most.

Thank you for what you grow, for how you lead, and for the difference you make every single day.

Happy Father’s Day from all of us 🧡
