Let's talk about almondsAlmond
GOOD FOOD STARTS WITH GOOD INGREDIENTS
All our lovely almonds are grown in the sunny Mediterranean, mostly fed by rainwater. And when the sky doesn’t provide quite enough, our farmers use drip irrigation, a way that makes every last drop count. Once they’re ripened by the sun, we harvest them, and maybe just lightly toast them to bring out the nutty flavour before turning them into our delicious almond based foods, ice creams, desserts and drinks.
OUR ALMONDS ARE PRETTY SPECIALHere’s what You need to know
Traditionally grown
Our almonds are grown on small farms in Spain and Italy, largely pollinated by wild bees and other flying insects. Letting nature do its job.
Zero net loss biodiversity
We're working hard with our almond farmers to use the plants, ponds and hedges in their orchards to attract wildlife back onto their land.
Nicely nutty
Lightly roasted or raw, naked and natural. Our almonds are delicious either way, and our drinks are just perfect for your bakes and cakes.

Have you got a question on our Almond products?
We know almonds can be thirsty . So when we found out in Spain and Italy they are mostly watered by rain, we decided to source them only from these countries.
We’re also working with a few farmers to protect biodiversity: using plants, ponds and hedges between their trees to invite wildlife back onto the land. We can’t wait to see who turns up!
Oh, and let’s not forget about the bees. After all, they help feed the world, be(e)ing the most important pollinator of food crops. We are collaborating with our suppliers and external experts to identify and promote pollinator-friendly products and production systems and apply this to all our almonds by 2025.
