In-Depth Review
Pioneering Regenerative Agriculture
SIMPLi was founded to bring transparency to a notoriously opaque global supply chain. Their Red Lentils are sourced directly from farming partners in high-altitude regions, utilizing traditional methods that have been enhanced with modern regenerative standards. These standards focus on the three pillars: soil health, animal welfare, and social fairness.
Red lentils are a nutritional powerhouse, offering high protein and fiber content with a quick cook time. Because they break down easily, they are perfect for dals, stews, and thickening soups. SIMPLi ensures that every bag can be traced back to the specific community of farmers who grew it.
