  4. Where are the ingredients grown or sourced from?

    The Basil in this pesto is gown on a third-generation family farm in Puglia, Italy. After harvesting, everything is processed and packaged next to the fields within eight hours of harvesting.

    This farm has maintained its exclusive Demeter Biodynamic® certification for a quarter of a century. It is also Certified USDA Organic and boasts quality certifications from IFS Food and the British Retail Consortium (BRC).

  5. Why doesn’t your pesto contain cheese like most pesto products?

    Traditional pesto typically includes parmesan or Romano cheese, but we know many people need to – or choose to – avoid dairy in their diets. So, we selected a recipe that provides all the delicious, zingy flavor of pesto without the cheese, for those who want a dairy-free option for this Italian favorite.
