The Raw Carrot is a social enterprise that empowers people who face barriers to traditional employment to secure their own livelihoods through the dignity of work. We partner with churches and nonprofits to employ adults on social assistance to make handcrafted gourmet foods.

Employment with Purpose

All of our products are handcrafted in small batches and made with purpose.

Our healthy soups are handcrafted in small batches, packed with tasty veggies and free of added preservatives. Fresh ingredients are sourced as locally as possible.

Delicious soups

We guarantee our soups are

  1. Super tasty
  2. Healthy
  3. Made with real food

We’ve seen too many supermarket soups that have indescribable meats and ingredients in them. We make the same soups at The Raw Carrot that we love to cook at home for our growing kids. Our soups are chock full of vegetables and high-quality meat and we have options for vegetarians/vegans as well as gluten-friendly diets. All our soups are currently sold frozen to seal in fresh flavours and ensure zero waste.

You can create employment with purpose

Every purchase of The Raw Carrot handcrafted gourmet foods helps people who face barriers to traditional employment to secure their own livelihoods through the dignity of work. Your choice to “buy social” gives people in your community a job, while you feed your family a healthy meal. 100% of all donations go directly to creating more jobs.
