Clove & Patchouli - Supporting Sri Lankan Farmers

Our clove & patchouli oils are sourced from a cooperative of over 200 small-scale spice farmers in Sri Lanka, where farming is deeply rooted in culture, community, and tradition. Through this community-led project, farmers grow and distil indigenous plants using time-honoured methods passed down through generations, preserving both the land and the knowledge that sustains it.

By working collectively, the cooperative creates fair, reliable employment and helps strengthen local economies, allowing families to thrive while maintaining a close connection to their environment. Every harvest supports ethical practices, shared resources, and a future built on respect for people and planet alike.

Community-grown and purpose-driven, these ingredients bring more than depth and warmth to our formulas, they carry the care, craftsmanship and collective strength of the communities behind them.

By sourcing our clove & patchouli oils from a cooperative of small-scale farmers in Sri Lanka, we directly support the people behind every harvest. This community-led project provides fair, reliable employment, empowers farmers through shared resources and training, and helps preserve traditional agricultural knowledge passed down through generations. Our partnership strengthens local livelihoods, supports ongoing community projects, and ensures farmers are valued, respected, and fairly rewarded for their craft - nurturing both the community and its future.

This community-led farming approach supports the earth as much as it supports people. By growing and distilling indigenous clove & patchouli using traditional, sustainable methods, the cooperative helps protect biodiversity, maintain healthy soil, and reduce environmental impact. Careful harvesting and shared resources ensure the land is nurtured rather than depleted - helping preserve local ecosystems and create a healthier, more resilient environment for future generations.

We do our part for sustainability by making thoughtful choices at every stage of our process. From responsibly sourcing ingredients through community-led farming projects to using recyclable packaging made with PCR materials, we’re committed to reducing our impact on the planet. By supporting ethical practices, protecting natural resources, and caring for the people behind every ingredient, we create products you can use with confidence knowing they’re made with respect for both your hair and the earth.
