Product of Columbia

Navitas Naturals Goldenberries are grown on small-scale family farms in the lush central region of Colombia. Healthy soils fed by ample rainfall give life to hardy goldenberry bushes that grow like vines with heart-shaped leaves. The fresh fruit has an appearance similar to a yellow cherry tomato, which is delicately cradled in a paper husk resembling a Chinese lantern.

Only the finest vine-ripened berries are selected for harvest and then low temperature dried to create a soft chewy texture that helps highlight the berry’s natural tartness. Our pure dried goldenberries are certified organic, kosher, vegan and raw.

Carotene and Bioflavonoids

Goldenberries contain a high amount of carotene and bioflavonoids, along with vitamins A and C. The berries also provide a healthy dose of dietary fiber, pectin, protein and phosphorous. It's unusual to find significant quantities of protein in a berry, and that makes the goldenberry an ideal snack for children.

Carotene and Bioflavonoids

Traditional and folk healing systems throughout the world have recognized the many medicinal properties attributed to this sweet and tart berry. Due to its high level of bioflavonoids, the goldenberry is an excellent addition to your diet if you're looking to boost your intake of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich foods. Decreasing inflammation can help reduce the risk of certain types of illnesses including hypertension, heart disease and arthritis, and antioxidants have been shown to protect cells from free-radical damage that can lead to certain types of cancer.

The cultivation of goldenberries is a sustainable choice that is beneficial for the environment as well as for the people that grow the plant. Goldenberries are a reliable alternative for the replacement of cash crops that deplete soils. Our goldenberries come from plants that thrive among other crops on well-managed organic farms.

Sweet Sour Satisfaction

Ancient Native American cultures ate fresh and boiled goldenberries. When the berries were discovered in abundance, the fruits were pounded and shaped into patties that were dried. The tangy tartness of the goldenberry makes it an especially delicious treat all by itself or mixed in with trail mixes, nuts, popcorn or other snack foods. The dried berries are also a tasty addition to salads, yogurts and oatmeal. We also recommend mixing whole or chopped goldenberries into cookies, smoothies, and raw or cooked desserts.
