About Sqirl

Jam is the Sqirl creation story. Now an internationally recognized breakfast + lunch restaurant in Virgil Village, Los Angeles, Sqirl started as a tiny jam company and everything since then has radiated from our jam-making genesis. Sqirl jam has become much more than capturing in-season, of-the-moment fruit. It has always connected us to the seasons, to the farmers, and now, more than a decade later, it's a holistic part of everything we do every day. The journey of a piece of fruit from flower to jar touches many hands: at the farm, within our kitchen, and finally to wherever a jar is squirreled away. Sqirl jam is meant to celebrate each one of those hands. We: - Directly support 40+ local fruit farmers in California, all within a 350 mile radius of Sqirl's kitchen. - Only use fresh fruit: always organic or from farmers with thoughtful farming practice.s - Never use frozen fruit or packaged purees or commercial pectin. - Only use Wholesome Sweetener Organic Sugar. - Make all jam in-house at a state of the art wholesale manufacturing facility under a Processed Food Registration License. (We do not co-pack.) - Monthly profit share with our entire team of jam makers. - Are dedicated to preserving unique + rare varieties of produce. - Intentionally purchase entire crops of farmers’ fruit that do not have a home in restaurant kitchens due to the current pandemic. - Are nut-free + gluten-free.Read their story
