Our ROC Almond Butter contains just one ingredient: Regenerative Organic Roasted Almonds.
The yummy spreadable nuttiness of our creamy roasted regenerative organic almond butter comes from California sunshine and our work to nurture our almond orchards in harmony with nature using regenerative practices.
Almond Butter is an excellent way to add extra vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber into your diet. Almond butter is also high in monounsaturated fats. Monounsaturated fats help to lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and raise HDL (“good”) cholesterol. Many other nutrients in almond butter also help improve your heart health and lower your risk for heart disease. Almonds are a great source of Vitamin E and source of plant-based protein. It’s a calorie-dense food – just like the raw almonds it is made from!
We jar our butter in GLASS.

Through regenerative practices such as cover cropping, diversity, and integrating livestock, Burroughs Family Farms has been able to improve the health and resilience of our soil, while reducing our environmental impact. In addition to being Regenerative Organic Certified®, Burroughs Family Farms is also certified organic, which means that we follow strict guidelines to produce crops without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers. Our whole systems approach integrates all aspects of our farming operations, and we work hard to use resources carefully and wisely.
Regenerative Organic Certified® is a revolutionary new certification for food, apparel, and personal care ingredients. Regenerative Organic Certified® farms and products meet the highest standards in the world for soil health, animal welfare, and farmworker fairness.
With regenerative organic agriculture, we can rehabilitate soil, respect animal welfare, and improve the lives of farmers. We can sequester carbon, build healthier communities, and reap more nutritious and abundant yields.
In practice, regenerative organic agriculture can look like cover cropping, crop rotation, low- to no-till, compost, and zero use of persistent chemical pesticides and fertilizers.
All Regenerative Organic Certified® products and farms must also meet the requirements of the USDA Organic Certification.
The USDA organic regulations describe organic agriculture as the application of a set of cultural, biological, and mechanical practices that support the cycling of on-farm resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. These include maintaining or enhancing soil and water quality; conserving wetlands, woodlands, and wildlife; and avoiding the use of synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge, irradiation, and genetic engineering.
Organic producers use natural processes and materials when developing farming systems—these contribute to soil, crop, and livestock nutrition, pest and weed management, attainment of production goals, and conservation of biological diversity.
We want to make sure that all products listed here align with our community's values. We do our best, but need help from you if you feel that there is something that we should be aware of about their regen ag practices, sources, supply chains, etc.
