Take from L’Occitane’s website:
Until the beginning of the last century, the almond tree was an emblem of the Provençal landscape. But little by little, almond cultivation was abandoned to make way for more profitable crops such as lavandin, and, by the 1950s and 60s, the tree had all but disappeared from the region. L’Occitane en Provence is committed to sourcing its almonds from producers in the south of France and the Mediterranean basin in order to help revive this traditional industry. Since the early 2000’s, we have partnered with Jean-Pierre Jaubert to revive the ancient art of almond tree cultivation in the south of France, and he has now replanted over 17,000 almond trees. His land covers 50 hectares, and his passion and know-how goes back three generations. Through multi-year contracts, L’Occitane en Provence maintains a sustainable partnership and relationship with Jean-Pierre, working hand-in-hand to ensure sustainable farming practices, using only organic fertilisers. Thanks to the regenerative agriculture strategy Jean-Pierre deploys, and the installation of a rainwater retention basin alongside building of 300 beehives to promote biodiversity, the land, biodiversity and iconic almond trees of Provence flourish once again.
Almonds have long been a hallmark of L’Occitane en Provence, integral to many of our most loved products. Celebrating their remarkable versatility, we are dedicated to sustainability by ensuring no part of the nut goes to waste. Even the hard shells, often discarded by the confectionery industry, are transformed into natural exfoliants in our products.
