Personalized Nutrition
Many would agree that food, much like music, is a communication tool and fundamental to who we are as people. It is intrinsically related to physical & emotional wellness, culture, community, and social structure. Eating is such an incredible molecular, chemical, and individual experience, which is why we believe there isn’t a one size fits all solution. Two individuals can eat the same meal and digest it entirely differently.
Wellness is an actively and perpetually pursued holistic goal and encompasses nutrition, the physical body, emotional health, personal wellbeing, and interpersonal connection. We aim to convey the power and value of real food effectively.
As an organization, we operate within a shared set of growing and evolving beliefs:
• Creating Opportunity
• We believe in the effectiveness of self-care
• We believe in bio-individuality.
• Health & Wellness solutions should be accessible to everyone
• Preventative Healthcare
• Health & Wellness is an individual lifestyle choice & journey
• The Body’s Innate Intelligence Systems
• Energy
• Nutrition Science & Nutritional Therapy Education
Traits that make us possible
• Keep it Simple. It’s Juice.
• Convenient
• Social & Environmental Responsibility
• Quality Control
• Innovation
• Fresh Ingredients
• Bio-Individuality
• Preventative Health & Self-Care
Culinary Wellness
“You talk like you got the juice and the squeeze,” Drake, 2016, Views.
Respectfully, We do!
Juicing is a culinary medicine intensifying the nutritional benefits of fruits and vegetables. Cold, Organic, & Fresh Pressed juices to flood the body with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, natural sugars, and enzymes that help nourish, reenergize and heal the body as it detoxifies.
Our juicing methodology allows each juice to maintain its maximum nutrient and vitamin retention. We grind. We press. This allows us to retain a concentrated amount of live valuable enzymes and vitamins that otherwise would be difficult to achieve just by eating raw fruits and vegetables alone.
Our bodies encounter toxins and stressors, considered injuries to our body systems, daily. Depending on the nature of the injury, it will require different restoration methodologies, including juice fasts, traditional fasting, or eliminating certain foods from the diet for a particular time or indefinitely.
Fasting is different for all sorts of lifestyles and cultures and an excellent way to give the digestive system a break and focus its energy on healing from within. Juice cleanses similar to fasting. It’s a way to open you up to the awareness of your body and respond accordingly. By the end of any fast, your body should have revealed discoveries.
Our bodies are constantly communicating. When the body is struggling to keep up, it lets us know through various minor symptoms, which become magnified if unheard or ignored.
When the body is hindered from efficiently neutralizing and eliminating toxins, they can be circulated throughout the lymphatic system and stored in human tissue. This accumulation of toxic waste can lead to rapid aging, weight gain, sluggishness, mood swings, depression, anxiety, disease, and deterioration vs. restoration.
Our juice fasting packages are an opportunity to cleanse, rest to digest, cell repair, redirect energy patterns, restore homeostasis, and an excellent way to elevate YOUR connection to YOUR body, mind, and wellbeing. All packages begin at a beginner fasting stage.
The longer you create the habit of juicing, the more opportunity for toxic removal, a good time, and more profound results. Elevate your juicing experience and try our weekly cold-pressed home delivery subscriptions!

National Black Farmers Association: The National Black Farmers Association is a non-profit organization representing African American farmers and their families in the United States. N.B.F.A.’s education and advocacy efforts have focused on civil rights, land retention, access to public and private loans, education and agricultural training, and rural economic development for black and other small farmers. As members of the National Black Farmers Association, we believe in farm-to-table. Supporting local farmers is a great way to build community and find out more information about the origin of the foods you consume. We encourage visits to your local farmer’s market to shop for your whole and seasonal produce. Sourcing locally also supports the environment. Farm to table cuts emission prices, creates less waste and has fewer hands in the supply chain.
