Growing organic agriculture. Building lasting partnerships.
“We are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon. And we’ve gotta get ourselves back to the garden.”
– Joni Mitchell
In these timeless words lies our inspiration at Terra Nostra. Our journey is more than sourcing and distributing organic ingredients; it’s about reconnecting with the Earth’s ancient wisdom.
From farming communities around the world to food brands and manufacturers in North America and Europe, our work connects people through organic agriculture.
What Our Partners Say
During my time at Nutiva, I had the pleasure of working closely with Hendrik Rabbie. Hendrik was always a dependable supplier and an invaluable source of market insights. His out-of-the-box thinking and deep understanding of the organic industry made him an important ally in advancing our mission for healthier, organic products.
From our earliest days, Living Intentions has been on a mission to revolutionize the way we think about food, focusing on health, vitality, and respect for the earth. In Terra Nostra, we found a partner who not only shares our passion for nurturing the planet and its people but also enhances our ability to deliver on that promise. Our collaboration with Terra Nostra has been a journey of shared growth, rooted in the belief that together, we can create a healthier, more sustainable future. Their dedication to innovation and sustainability in the supply chain has been a game-changer, helping us bring our vision of activated, nutrient-dense foods to a wider audience.
Hendrik has been a partner and friend for well more than a decade, and when it comes to issues of organic integrity and sourcing international organic products, I trust him completely. The explosive and unprecedented growth of Terra Nostra is a testament that I am hardly the only one who feels this way.
I have always cherished the collaboration with Hendrik Rabbie. I reflect fondly on our journeys together across Southeast Asia in pursuit of innovative ingredients for plant-based cheese. I regard Hendrik not just as a professional ally but as a friend. I appreciate his commitment and contributions to the organic vegan food industry. This partnership has been pivotal in exploring new avenues for vegan cuisine, underscoring our shared dedication to sustainability and culinary innovation.
I am deeply inspired by how Terra Nostra has championed and expanded upon the vision Gerard Versteegh and I embraced when founding Tradin Organic over 30 years ago. Today's work, amidst the challenges posed by GMOs and laboratory-modified agriculture, is crucial. We must continue to build supply chains that not only drive social and sustainable change globally but also honor our foundational commitment to organic integrity. Now more than ever, our mission to foster environmentally sound and equitable food systems is imperative
From the very beginning, Navitas Organics recognized a shared ethos with Terra Nostra, driven by our mutual commitment to both the planet and its people. Our core mission has always been to foster a deep connection to the source of our ingredients, and partnering with Terra Nostra has empowered us to enhance our reach and impact. Their expertise and presence on the ground have been invaluable in helping us further our dedication to sustainability and ethical sourcing.
