We believe that life is raw, life is full, and above all, life is unpressed.

And food should be too.

Unfortunately, eating healthy is expensive nowadays, and inconvenient. Since the rise of the industrial food system, technology has been used to solve the convenience problem by extending shelf life through pasteurization and other unnatural methods. However, extending the life of a product really takes the life out of the product, and doesn’t solve the root of the problem: that people don’t have the time, the materials, or the knowledge to make healthy meals.

Above all, we are striving to change people’s relationship to food in the modern world. In a society where healthy food is not convenient, and convenient food is rarely healthy, we are attempting to fundamentally change the notion that “fast food” must be “bad food.” We envision a world where technology can actually bring us closer to nature and enrich our lives by nourishing our bodies.

Live Better

Our smoothies are made fresh every morning with premium ingredients that are never pressed, preserved, or pasteurized. We blend whole fruits and veggies, as well as nuts, seeds and superfoods, to ensure a balance of essential ingredients. Our product is similar to what you would find in your own kitchen, and unlike anything you see on the shelf of a retail store. Amidst all the fads, the detox diets, and the buzzword health claims, our blends aim to do something simple, but astonishingly powerful: put your stomach, and your mind, at ease.

Live Smarter

Our goal is not only to make healthy, delicious smoothies, but also to make them accessible to everyone: from the green smoothie experts to the skeptics and everyone in-between. Whether you make your own kale concoctions at home, or you cringe at the sight of greens – what we provide is invaluable: time, ease, and health, all in one. Instead of struggling with cutting boards, wilting produce, and a messy blender in the morning, let us save you the time and the trouble.
