    Our Story: From Motherhood to a Mission — The Birth of Forage & Earth Ocean 🌿

    At Forage & Earth Ocean Wild Harvest Botanical Foods, our story is rooted in more than just food — it’s about transformation, healing, and the power of nature to nourish the human body from the inside out.

    Founded by Nicole Lopez, a passionate mother, wellness advocate, and entrepreneur, our brand was born during one of the most uncertain times in modern history — the global pandemic. In the midst of lockdowns, Nicole welcomed her first child into the world and simultaneously gave life to an idea that would soon become a thriving, purpose-driven plant-based wellness company.

    A Seed Planted in Crisis, Grown with Purpose 🌱

    The world slowed down in 2020, and for Nicole, that pause became a catalyst. After years in the corporate world, she felt a deeper calling — one rooted in natural healing, plant-based nutrition, and the ancestral wisdom of botanical foods. As she navigated postpartum recovery and a rapidly changing world, she began creating products that supported her own health and well-being: organic herbal teas, mineral-rich sea moss, nutrient-dense functional foods, and small-batch superfoods designed to support immunity, gut health, and hormone balance.

    What started in a home kitchen quickly blossomed into a movement. Nicole’s commitment to holistic nutrition and sustainable plant-based living evolved into Forage & Earth Ocean — a brand that celebrates the synergy between earth and sea, plants and people.

    Our Mission: Healing Through Nature, Empowering Through Food 🌊

    We believe that food is medicine. Every product we create is crafted with intention, sourcing the purest, wild-harvested, and ethically grown botanicals from around the world. From our mineral-dense sea moss gel to our hormone-balancing herbal blends, our mission is to bridge the gap between ancient remedies and modern wellness.

    Our approach is rooted in three core principles:

    • 🌿 Nature First: We use wild-harvested, organic, and sustainably sourced ingredients — because the earth knows best.
    • 🍃 Wellness with Purpose: Every product supports real health outcomes — from improved digestion and stronger immunity to enhanced skin vitality and hormone balance.
    • 🌎 Community & Connection: We’re more than a brand — we’re a movement built on educating, empowering, and nourishing individuals and families.

    Women-Led. Purpose-Driven. Future-Focused. ✨

    As a women-owned wellness company, Forage & Earth Ocean stands at the intersection of plant-based innovation and ancestral healing. We’re passionate about crafting products that meet the needs of today’s health-conscious consumers — people who read labels, value transparency, and want to know that what they’re putting into their bodies is both effective and ethical.

    Our botanical formulas are designed for the modern lifestyle — convenient, functional, and deeply nourishing. Whether it’s sea moss gel for gut health, adaptogenic teas for hormonal balance, or vegan functional nutrition products that support your daily energy, every offering is backed by science, tradition, and love.


    The Story Continues: A Growing Wellness Movement 🌍

    From our flagship botanical line to our beloved community space — Mama Cheá Café, a plant-based café and wellness hub in South Florida — we’re expanding what it means to eat with purpose. Forage & Earth Ocean is more than a brand; it’s a lifestyle, a philosophy, and a promise to leave the world healthier than we found it.

    And this is just the beginning. Our vision is to become a global leader in botanical superfoods and functional plant-based nutrition, creating products that help people heal, thrive, and reconnect with the wisdom of nature.
