About the Employer

Ojas is a Sanskrit word which roughly translates to immunity or vitality. It's an energetic reserve that fuels one's passion for life. In the Ayurvedic tradition, lack of digestion leads to disease. On the contrary, good digestion promotes Ojas.

At Ojas Balls, we make ayurvedically inspired date-based treats. They are gluten free, dairy free, plant based, naturally sweetened, vegan, and contain Ayurvedic herbs.

We seek to promote noticing the effects of foods on our moment to moment experience and to not downplay the context in which we eat (i.e. our emotions, the setting, and the company with which we share food and experience).

The first order of ethos for us is love. It goes into every aspect of our process from ethical sourcing to interacting with our customers. As an organization, we are easy going, fun loving, and simultaneously, precise. We care about health through community and honoring the senses with tastes, sights, and sounds.
