🌎 World Environment Day (today!) feels like a good moment to talk about the bigger picture behind Figure Ate. 🌎

Our parent nonprofit, , works to advance regenerative agriculture through land stewardship, farmer training, and research at Jalama Canyon Ranch — a 1,000-acre living laboratory on California’s Central Coast.

Agriculture can be part of the climate solution.

When land is managed regeneratively, healthy soil can store more carbon, support biodiversity, improve water cycles, and grow more resilient ecosystems over time. Season after season, it’s about working in better relationship with the land.

Figure Ate was created to help support that work through food people actually want to eat: air-dried beef biltong 🥩 made with regeneratively sourced beef, and naturally fermented persimmon vinegar 🍊 crafted from surplus California fruit.

Good food starts with a healthy environment!

🥗 Soup, we love you. But salad season is officially back.

Hilary Boynton () knows her way around an exceptional salad — she’s a chef, author, and the woman making school lunch worth eating in Topanga, CA. She developed this dressing recipe around our Persimmon Vinegar: fresh herbs, whole grain mustard, blood orange, olive oil. Simple ingredients, delicious flavor.

Recipe is on our blog, link in bio.
