a pause in the busyness of life
It’s grounding to be in the kitchen, making food for yourself and your loved ones. There’s something powerful in caring about what you’re eating, where it comes from and how it’s nourishing you. As a letter in the Hawaiian alphabet, an ‘okina represents a break between two syllables. As our name, ‘Okina represents a break from the rush of life — a pause that renews both people and the planet.

a note from our founder
What can I feed my family? This journey began with that simple question. As I looked for breakfast and snack options for my kids, I struggled to find products that met my standards. Artificial ingredients, filler flours and overly sweetened baked goods? ...I couldn’t do it. Where was tasty and healthful?
I started baking from scratch, but that quickly shifted from a joy to a chore as I tried to keep up with the appetite of two growing boys. Knowing that others have similar struggles, I created a shortcut -- a baking mix that captures the way you’d bake if you had the time. Made with only the best whole foods. Freshly milled. All grown in ways that are good for you and the planet.
I love getting to share these foods with you. Feeding a family (and ourselves) is both a joy and a challenge. I hope these baking mixes help you find more of the joy!
