Our Story
In 2012, Jenny set out on a quest for clean, plant-based milks, free from gums and additives. Frustrated by the limited options, she turned to the wisdom passed down from her grandmother, whose belief in the healing power of food sparked Jenny's own mission to create pure, nourishing nutmilks. This journey led to the founding of Three Trees.
In 2013, Jenny began sharing her creations with the community, selling Three Trees at local farmer’s markets and stores in San Francisco. Her commitment to simplicity and quality quickly resonated with consumers, and the brand started to gain traction.
By 2020, Three Trees reached a remarkable milestone: nationwide availability in major retailers like Sprouts Farmers Market, Wegmans, and Whole Foods Market, allowing even more people to experience the brand's dedication to wholesome, plant-based nutrition.
The inspiration for Three Trees runs deep in Jenny’s roots. Her grandmother, a passionate forager who believed in the power of nature's bounty, often created nourishing meals from wild plants. These childhood experiences of exploring and connecting with nature instilled in Jenny a profound appreciation for plants as a source of nourishment. Now, as a mother of two, Jenny’s dedication to providing clean, nutritious, and delicious food remains at the heart of Three Trees' mission.
The name "Three Trees" comes from the Chinese characters, where three trees (木) together symbolize a forest (森). This represents the philosophy that the best foods come naturally from the earth.
Why Three Trees
-
We don't think additives like gums or stabilizers belong in plant-based milk, not even derived “natural” flavors. We keep it as simple and clean as possible. Nothing you wouldn’t find in your kitchen pantry.
-
We use loads of organic almonds, four times more than other leading brands. Our plant-based milks are naturally high in healthy fats, plant-based protein, and micronutrients such as vitamin E, manganese, magnesium, vitamin B2, and phosphorus.
-
Because we carefully select each ingredient for quality and taste, our plant-based milks are distinctively rich, creamy and nutty. There is no gummy or filmy aftertaste. Just pure, unadulterated deliciousness.
