🌱 Closing a Chapter with Gratitude 🌱

Thank you to everyone who was part of the Jara.Earth journey. What a ride it’s been, full of learnings, creativity, love, and growth. 💚

This chapter has come to an end, and it’s time to make space for something new. Jara taught me so much: about sustainability, about storytelling, about community, and most importantly, about myself. Every lesson and experience has shaped the path I walk today with Favamole.

I carry the spirit of Jara into every pot of Favamole — rooted, intentional, and bold. 🌍💫

So, with deep love and appreciation… thank you. To everyone who supported, co-created, and believed in Jara: you are part of this next step too. Now, I’m pouring my heart fully into Favamole, and I’m excited for what’s to come. 🫶🏼

Here’s to closing doors with gratitude and opening new ones with purpose.

Much love,
Andrés

International flavors with local, sustainable and organic ingredients: this is what we create every day for you. This way you can enjoy tasty meals with delicious sauces made 100% locally and 100% natural.

JARA Salsa ai Funghi was born as a pasta sauce 🍝 Made with tomatoes and mushrooms, it has nothing to envy to meat sauce: cooked slowly for hours, the texture and flavor of this sauce will convince you to use it not only on pasta but also on bread or as dip.

It can be eaten warm or cold. With JARA Salsa ai Funghi your healthy meal is ready in just 5 minutes.

MEET THE TEAM!

Today we introduce you Laura! She is responsible for the JARA production process.

Laura is 31 years old and lives in Amsterdam. She first met Andres in 2013, when they both got enrolled at the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Bra, Italy, and they have been best friends ever since!

What is jour job?
I am a freelance cook specialized in manufacturing processes, food logistics and catering. I was one of the first team members to join JARA team, back in October 2020, and now I am the Chief of Production for JARA.

Beyond Jara, I also work with other members of the Kitchen Republic community, from whom I keep learning new skills and never stop having fun.

What do you enjoy the most?
I love food and cooking. It's a big part of my being, not only for the passion I put into it, but also the amount of time it takes. We could say it's a lifestyle, which I'm happy to have chosen. I also like painting and music, that is an omnipresent background of my life.

What do you do in JARA and what do you bring to it?
At JARA, I take care of the whole production process: from the fresh goods to the labelled jar. I also help with the logistics and the traceability of both goods and products. To JARA, I bring my organization, my humor and of course my music.
My favourite quote is “If you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life”!

Thanks Laura for the effort, the skills and the fun you bring to our team every day!
