With a focus on regenerative farming and small-scale groves, Citizens of Soil is bringing more than just flavour to the table with its olive oil. <\/p>

Soup season is officially here! With rainy days a-plenty over the past week and leaves beginning to turn, September has never felt more autumnal. And although we’d love to cling on to the last dregs of summer, we are more than looking forward to cosying up after a rainy walk with a steaming bowl of something warm and delicious.<\/p>

The key to a delicious soup is in the flavour base – we’re talking garlic, onion, herbs, and of course, a good quality olive oil. <\/p>

Citizens of Oil have loads of delicious recipes<\/a> on their website, including:<\/p>
Creamy roasted cauliflower soup<\/a><\/li>
Zingy Greek lemon and egg chicken soup<\/a><\/li>
Fragrant corn chowder<\/a><\/li>
Cosy and creamy celariac soup<\/a><\/li>
Spiced autumnal squash<\/a><\/li>
Autumn honey-baked feta toast, with pear, chard & sage<\/a><\/li><\/ul>
We’re also tempted by their decadent olive oil chocolate cake recipe<\/a> – and if olive oil is packed with polyphenols<\/a>, that means its technically good for us, right?<\/p>

Small batch, big flavour <\/h3>
In order to combat the lack of transparency and anonymised mass production within the olive oil industry, Citizens of Soil supports independent farmers working on small-scale groves<\/a>. <\/p>
Their commitment to social and environmental impact has earned them B-Corp certification<\/a>. You can find details such as harvest date, specific olive varieties, polyphenol and antioxidant count<\/a> and producer information to get a solid understanding of the produce journey, from farm to pantry.<\/p>
Small-scale producers receive well-above the market rates, and their names on the olive oil bottle for complete transparency and traceability. <\/p>
In addition to this, the brand champions female growers<\/a> using regenerative farming practices that promote soil health, nutrition and biodiversity. Such practices include diverse planting, low or no tiling of the soil and allowing animals to graze between the groves. <\/p>
Rinse, refill, repeat <\/h3>
For many of us, olive oil is a regular shopping list item, which can result in a pile up of plastic bottles. To help you reduce waste, Citizens of Soil offers a refill service<\/a>. <\/p>
Receive pouches through your letterbox, and refill your favourite olive oil bottle<\/a> when it’s in need of topping up. You can even return your used pouches for free recycling. <\/p>
