Values

Preserve...heritage, place, identity, cultural awareness, and of course.... sweet, sweet fruit.

From the beginning RedCamper has been about honoring place, preserving heritage & culture, and building awareness of the unique qualities of every corner of this beautiful earth. With both our product lines we are proud to say everything is original, ethically sourced or manufactured, and thoughtfully created. We aim to be as responsible to our fellow humans and our planet as we possibly can. 

 

If you want to be the best, surround yourself with the best

We have some great relationships with local farmers, especially First Fruits, that provide us the perfect organic fruit for our Peach, Apple and Pear, Apricot & Sparkling Cherry flavors, for citrus we are proud to work with organic farmer Silver Canyon in Gilbert, Arizona, Organic green chilies, Pueblo Seed is our source. Our spirits partners are best in class (mostly ) local producers, and we humanely and ethically source our spices, and some of our ingredients like limes from developing countries that can certainly use an economic boost. We especially love working with LaFaza Co-op in Madagascar for that luscious vanilla we use a lot of.  We fully moved to organic sugar 10 years ago after learning about non-organic farm runoff contributing to toxic algae blooms in Florida and have never looked back. Yes it costs more, yes it's worth it. In all cases we use non-gmo ingredients and are working hard to move to a fully organic ingredient list sourced from regenerative and sustainable suppliers. We are 98% of the way there. (Blueberries..we are coming at ya.)We support our local economy, but also believe a strong world economy is critical to a positive future for humankind. The rising tide lifts all boats. 

 

Do things right. Sleep well at night. 

Handcrafted and small batch have become loose terms used by giant manufacturers now, but we live and breathe it. Every batch of Deliciousness is hand chopped, zested, pitted, squeezed and stirred, than hand poured, jar by jar. 12 years in we still haven't compromised our ideals of honoring the fruit, and the long journey it's had to get to us. We believe in making products with care, and with the best ingredients we can source, and use prep and cooking techniques that are specific to the end taste and texture and aesthetic that we believe defines our products as superior to the standard grocery store preserve. We believe in using fruit at its prime and producing with the rhythms of seasons. We believe in crafting a combination of flavors that is unexpected and memorable enough that we become the bar of measurement from the time you taste our recipes, forever forward. We believe in sustainable farming, heritage ingredients, and celebrating the uniqueness of regions through the terroir of their grown fruits and spices. We believe in doing things right. Right for your health, right for our suppliers livelihood, right for the earth, right for the future.

We are proud to be five time recipients of the Good Food Award for our efforts and we adhere by the Slow Food movements morals and principles. 

Thank you for helping us create something we believe in.
