The Philosopher's Stoneground Nut Butters

The Philosopher’s Stoneground nourishes people and planet with our craft nut butters! Our stone-ground coconut butter, sprouted almond butter, and chocolate versions of both are made in small batches in Santa Cruz, California. Using stone grinding, a food preparation technique older than civilization, we are re-defining nut butter with our unique flavors and textures. Our signature triple value-added process creates unprecedented flavors and nutrition profiles. 1) Sprouting makes the almonds sweeter, more digestible, and nutritious. Research shows that sprouting increases the polyphenol content of the almonds, boosting antioxidant activity. 2) Dehydrating preserves the enzymes, flavor, and nutrition of sprouted almonds, without generating the carcinogenic acrylamide that results from roasting, as most nut butters are and contain. 3) Stone-grinding is a low temperature, slow speed, ancient technology for food processing that avoids the oxidation and heavy metal contamination of modern high-speed metal food processors that make most commercially available nut butters. All of our ingredients are certified Organic, Fair Trade where possible, and meticulously sourced. We feature gluten-free, peanut-free, ketogenic, Paleo, and vegan products. Don’t worry; we have your health, the health of workers all along the supply chain, and the health of the planet in mind. We create nut butters that are grown, produced, and distributed in a holistically healthy fashion for all places and organisms involved. We are a big-picture company focused on facilitating the regeneration and flourishing of Life on Earth. Our mission is to create delicious, nutritious, ethical, and ecological food that nourishes all Life through its cultivation, manufacturing, distribution, and consumption. Our vision is to use business to promote the flourishing of all organisms and ecosystems!
