A Story
Rooted in Kenya.

Where it all begins

At Ridge & Root, exceptional macadamias begin at the source. Grown in Kenya and sourced from small family farms across the country's macadamia-growing regions, they carry a distinctive story of origin, people and place. We carefully select, process and transform the macadamia nuts through roasting and thoughtfully developed flavors into a premium snacking experience. The result is Ridge & Root a celebration of macadamia excellence, created for today's global consumer.

Women-Owned. Purpose-Led.
Proudly Kenyan.

Ridge & Root is brought to you by Jane & Charity, the women behind Kenya's first 100% women-owned macadamia-processing company.

Driven by the belief that wellness should never feel like a compromise, we created Ridge & Root to bring together rich flavor, thoughtful nutrition, and meaningful impact.

Together, we are creating greater value for Kenya's macadamia producers, connecting small family farms with global markets, and sharing exceptional Kenyan quality with the world.
