You are Worthy!
Gather Nuts was launched with a mission to create the best tasting healthiest nuts while doing the least amount of harm to the planet. Early on we discovered a local brewery in town that shared a similar vision – minus the nuts.
Our Favorite Shrub
When we make Rosemary Olive Oil Almonds, the smell of rosemary takes over the whole kitchen and we revel in its fragrant scent. Rosemary is a shrub but calling it that feels undignified given its miraculous benefits.
Coffee...Cashews?
Are you a daily coffee drinker? Or have you given up coffee, but still love the smell of it? Or are you just missing the flavor? If you love the smell and flavor of coffee, but choose not to drink it, then our Coffee Cashews were made for you!
The Enchanting Spice
For those of you who don’t live in Bend, OR where Gather Nuts is based, you may not be aware of the city’s obsession with cardamom. It’s a real thing. Sparrow is a fantastic local bakery that made cardamom cool by creating the beloved Ocean Roll. It’s like a cinnamon roll but made with cardamom instead.
From Disliked to Delicious
Maple Cinnamon Brazil Nuts is one of our original flavors that surprisingly quickly became popular. If you're like most of us, when a can of mixed nuts comes out, you leave the Brazil nuts for someone else to eat. If that's you, you're missing out on some profound health benefits!
The Guilt-Free Dessert
Who knew when we first created Chocolate Coffee Cashews that we would hit upon something so unique people would “go nuts” over them! It’s been a delight to see the love people have for Chocolate Coffee Cashews. Our mad love for them comes from creating a sweet treat that’s healthy!
Let's Get Spicy
By now you know now we don’t just focus on flavor. We strive to support your health by making it easy to “tastefully” consume key nutrients necessary for everyday wellness. These days, we’re all more aware of how important it is to maintain a strong immune system. Good news, our Spicy Red Curry Cashews can help!
Guilt Free Snacking- "Cheezy" Almonds
This is the snack your parents longed for when you came home starving after school – a healthy snack basically disguised as Cheetos. However, back then it’s unlikely your parents knew about nutritional yeast. But you do. You know all about culturing yeast in beet molasses to create the flavor profile of cheese.
Chocolate Coffee Cashews
How do you create a scrumptious healthy snack that passes for a dessert and won’t leave you feeling guilty? First you meet a coffee roaster who is meticulous in his craft and willing to spend a couple of months perfecting a coffee that would complement a cashew.
Growing Almonds
If you live in the west, you already know we’re living in significant drought conditions, and all over the world, climate change is causing situations where there is too little water – or too much. One of our core values is to do the least amount of harm to the planet, so let’s get real about one of our favorite nuts.
Our Process
We start by soaking our nuts to break down chemical compounds like phytates, enzyme inhibitors, and lectins that bind to nutrients in nuts and make them difficult to digest. In nature, these compounds exist as a form of protection for the nut or seed until it's ready to sprout a plant.
A dive into our nutritious AND delicious Maple Cinnamon Brazil Nuts
What I wish I knew about Brazil Nuts Years Ago! A note from our founder, Shanna. I won’t lie. I’ve never been too fond of Brazil nuts - but they're so darn nutritious that I had to find a way to make me want to eat them, and to share them with the world! The result is our delectable Maple Cinnamon Brazil Nuts.
