FAQs

Our award-winning Plum Beauty Oil is grown, harvested and cold-pressed on our 4th generation family farm in Sutter County, California. This farm was founded in 1916 by our great-grandfather and operates today as the world’s largest organic grower and producer of plums. We are so proud to be continuing the family tradition with clean beauty!

Le Prunier is 100% sustainable. Our Plum Beauty Oil is created by cold-pressing upcycled plum kernels, which were previously a waste product on the farm. The remaining flesh of the fruit is then used to create juice, dried fruit, baby food, etc., so nothing goes to waste. Our farm has been 100% powered by solar for the last ten years and we’ve been committed to organic farming for over 30 years. From start to finish, Le Prunier products remain all natural, ethical, and eco-friendly.
