Willa's Oat Milks has a simple mission: to create oat milk that tastes as good as it is good for you and Mother Earth. The company prides itself on the taste of its products and the sustainability of its zero-waste packaging. Willa’s is based in Minnesota, and what started as a plan to distribute to co-working environments was upended when Covid hit. It was a happy accident as they retooled their marketing strategy and distribution.
Find Willa’s at your favorite co-ops and these locations and consider the health benefits of Oat Milk by adding it to coffee, traditionally cream-based soups, or these muffins. Find other recipe ideas for Willa’s here.
