SUPPORTING LOCAL:
THE STORY OF LOVE ORGANICS

I still remember the day Janaka walked into our Southport store, bringing with him a selection of his incredible fermented kraut and kimchi. It was during the early days of our store opening, and I was instantly captivated—not just by the delicious flavours, but by the enthusiasm and commitment that Janaka radiated. His love for his craft was infectious, and I knew we had to feature his products across all our Brisbane stores.

Love Organics began its journey five years ago, born from a shared passion for cooking and a desire to create something healthful. Janaka and his partner started making raw fermented kimchi in their kitchen, experimenting with flavours and ingredients. Each batch was a labour of love, and they eagerly shared their creations with family and friends, receiving enthusiastic feedback that only fuelled their passion.

As they honed their craft, they discovered the alchemy of fermentation—a magical process that transforms simple ingredients into nutrient-rich superfoods. After years of experimentation, they found the perfect balance of flavours, leading to the birth of Love Organics. Today, their products are a testament to the belief that food should be clean, flavourful, and functional.

What truly sets Love Organics apart is their commitment to quality. They only use certified organic produce and superfoods, ensuring that every jar of kimchi or kraut is free from pesticides, chemicals, and GMOs. They’ve also received certification as a vegan product, recognizing the growing demand for cruelty-free options among conscious consumers.

The latest gem in the Love Organics range is the beautifully crafted Sea Chi - a vibrant, fermented blend of three different sea vegetables, blue spirulina, and horseradish. This unique product is packed with essential nutrients and powerful health benefits, all while supporting a cause that's close to our hearts: protecting our oceans.

Whether you're looking to boost your immune system, support gut health, or simply add some new flavours to your wellness routine, Sea Chi has you covered. And with each jar purchased, you're not only nourishing your body, but you're also contributing to the Australian Marine Conservation Society. Talk about a win-win!

Let’s break down what makes this fermented blend so special:

Sea Vegetables:

Seaweed is a nutrient-dense food that’s been part of traditional diets for centuries. In Sea Chi, you’ll find a blend of three different sea vegetables, which are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. These include iodine (important for thyroid function), magnesium (for energy and muscle function), and calcium (for bone health), just to name a few.

Blue Spirulina:

Spirulina is often referred to as one of the world’s most nutritious foods, and for good reason! It’s packed with protein, B-vitamins, iron, and antioxidants. But what sets blue spirulina apart is its vibrant colour, thanks to a powerful antioxidant called phycocyanin, which also has anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties. It’s a great addition for supporting your body’s natural defenses.

Horseradish:

This peppery root vegetable adds a kick to Sea Chi and provides some surprising health benefits. Horseradish has been shown to support digestion, reduce inflammation, and even promote respiratory health — not to mention its role in fighting infections due to its natural antibacterial properties.

Love Organics is also deeply committed to the protection of Australia’s pristine coastlines and oceans. Without the preservation of these ecosystems, they wouldn’t be able to source the clean, certified organic sea vegetables that make up this unique product. As part of this commitment, for every jar of Sea Chi purchased, Love Organics will make a contribution to the Australian Marine Conservation Society (AMCS), an organization dedicated to protecting our oceans, coastlines, and marine species. AMCS works on critical issues like reducing plastic pollution, conserving coral reefs, and advocating for sustainable fisheries.
