While we are currently not offering Cleanses in Canada - we will soon have the option for cleanses. This information will be available when the cleanses are launched.
Although Little West is not certified organic, we consider ourselves “better than organic” because we’re dedicated to using local West Coast fruits and vegetables.
The produce that goes into our juice is sourced from local family farms, including many of the same vendors at our neighborhood Farmers Market. We can personally see where (and how) everything is grown, inspect each ingredient by hand, and guarantee the highest quality.
Many brands that are certified organic use old produce that's been shipped from industrial farms in other states or even overseas. These ingredients often sit in crates for days or weeks during transit, losing vital nutrients and flavor.
By buying local, we receive our ingredients as soon as they leave the farm. We cold press and bottle our juice within 48 hours of harvest. This makes Little West healthier, fresher, and better tasting.
Cold pressing is a method that extracts juice from fruits and vegetables using a hydraulic press. As the name implies, there’s no heat involved at any point during the juicing process. Cold pressed juices are also unpasteurized (Little West uses High Pressure Processinginstead).
Regular juicing usually involves a centrifugal juicer or other processes that generate heat. These juices are then pasteurized, which heats the juice to around 85 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
Heat dramatically lowers the overall quality of juices. It destroys the fresh, vibrant flavor of the ingredients and degrades the nutritional value. Many regular juices are then pumped full of added sugars or sweeteners, artificial flavors, or other chemicals to compensate. Some regular juices are just as unhealthy as soda.
Cold pressed juices have significantly more vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, digestive enzymes, and other nutrients compared to juices made using heat. In fact, cold pressed juices offer many of the same health benefits as eating raw fruits and vegetables. They also taste better!

Yes! We use a method called High Pressure Processing (HPP), which uses pressure to destroy any harmful bacteria or food-borne pathogens that may be present. HPP makes our juices safe for everyone, including people with compromised immune systems and pregnant women. It also prolongs the lifespan of our juices so they stay fresh and delicious for much longer.
Little West juices are not meal replacements. We recommend drinking our juice as part of a healthy diet that’s high in fresh vegetables and fruits, whole grains, and lean protein. However, many people enjoy doing short juice cleanses every now and then to “reset” their body.
Yes. Our juice does not contain any chemical preservatives, so you need to keep it in your refrigerator. When ordering juices online, please refrigerate them as soon as possible after your order arrives.
Yes! Our bottles are 100% RPET plastic, which means they’re made from 100% recycled post-consumer plastic and are also fully recyclable.
