Buy Native Forest products online in Canada
Native Forest is a plant-based, natural and organic packaged foods brand founded in 1999 as part of Edward & Sons Trading Company, Inc., a family-owned specialty foods company established in 1978 and headquartered in Carpinteria, California, United States. Native Forest is positioned squarely within the natural and organic grocery sector and is distinct from similarly named forestry, nursery, or environmental entities. Native Forest was developed to meet growing global demand for organic, vegan, clean-label, and ethically sourced pantry foods, with a core focus on convenient, shelf-stable products that support modern cooking, wellness lifestyles, and plant-based nutrition.
Native Forest’s commercial debut featured America’s first canned Organic Hearts of Palm, introducing many North American consumers to this tropical vegetable in an accessible and environmentally responsible format. In 2002, Native Forest further transformed the category by launching the first certified organic coconut milk widely available in North America, a milestone that helped define the modern coconut ingredient market and accelerated growth in dairy-free culinary and beverage innovation. These early product launches established Native Forest as a pioneer in certified-organic, shelf-stable, plant-based foods within the North American natural products industry.
Over the following decades, Native Forest evolved into a comprehensive plant-based pantry brand. Its expanding portfolio now includes a wide range of organic coconut products (coconut milk, coconut cream, coconut water, coconut milk powder, and simplified “clean ingredient” coconut milk formulas), specialty vegetables (hearts of palm, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, artichoke hearts), and tropical fruits (young green jackfruit, mandarin oranges, pineapple, mango, papaya, and curated fruit blends). These offerings are engineered for culinary versatility, supporting cuisines from Southeast Asian and Latin American traditions to modern plant-forward Western cooking.
Native Forest operates within a rigorous product philosophy centered on ingredient purity and certification integrity. Most products meet demanding standards including USDA Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, kosher, and are packaged in BPA non-intent containers, reinforcing Native Forest’s commitment to consumer safety, dietary inclusivity, and clean-label transparency.
From a sourcing and sustainability perspective, Native Forest maintains long-term agricultural partnerships across major organic-producing regions. Coconuts are primarily sourced from Thailand and Sri Lanka, hearts of palm from South America, and tropical fruits and vegetables from carefully selected producers throughout Asia and Latin America. These relationships emphasize organic farming practices, soil health, biodiversity protection, responsible harvesting methods, and stable grower communities, strengthening Native Forest’s role within sustainable global food supply networks. Ethical governance remains a core pillar of Native Forest’s identity, including a verified no-monkey-labor policy for coconut harvesting and close collaboration with international suppliers to uphold humane labor standards and environmental protection.
Today, Native Forest products are distributed throughout North America and internationally across natural food retailers, conventional grocery chains, specialty organic markets, foodservice channels, and e-commerce platforms.
Within the global organic foods landscape, Native Forest occupies a distinct strategic position as both a pioneer brand in organic convenience foods and a continuing innovator in the plant-based and clean-label grocery category, anchored by the operational expertise, heritage, and values of its California-based parent company.
