Where it all began
A story that goes beyond food
Growing up, my Latvian grandparents often reminded me, "Ēd kārtīgi!" — "Eat well!"
To them, eating well wasn’t just about nourishment; it was about the joy of sharing seasonal, local, and carefully crafted food that’s bursting with flavour. The meals I remember most vividly were made from fresh ingredients, either grown in our family garden or by passionate farmers we knew personally, visiting them at the local market every Saturday. Food wasn’t just sustenance—it was about flavour, connection, tradition, and care. Pancake Sundays with a freshly opened jar of granny’s apple jam from our garden, sun-warmed tomatoes picked straight from the vine—those rich flavors and aromas defined what real, gourmet food meant to me.
This philosophy to food stayed with me as I left my homeland to pursue love and a career across continents. But I quickly realised that the artisanal, seasonal food I grew up with—crafted with respect for nature and the people behind it—was becoming harder to find.
Supermarkets presented a distorted reality by offering perfectly shaped but tasteless strawberries in January, aisles of ultra-processed condiments full of additives, and products with unknown, opaque origins.
People seem more disconnected from their food than ever, and the consequences are all around us: a broken food system, declining human health, and the escalating climate crisis.
As my frustration grew, so did my desire to make a change. In 2023, alongside my husband Marcis, we founded Gourmie Goods with a clear mission: to bring radical transparency to the food system, and help people reconnect with the origins of their food for a healthier, more sustainable future.
We’ve dedicated ourselves to bringing exceptional products from Europe’s finest makers and growers into the heart of modern, busy lives.
At Gourmie Goods, we empower home cooks and conscious eaters to rediscover real, nourishing food, without sacrificing the convenience.
Every product we offer is directly sourced from artisans who share our values - people with nothing to hide.
Crafted with integrity, rooted in seasonality, and made with respect for nature, each item reflects the care and expertise of its maker.
From olive oil pressed just moments after harvest to locally fermented kombucha and single-origin chocolate, each product tells a story of place, people, and craft.
Every bite reconnects you with its source, reminding you of what real food should be: nourishing, bursting with flavor, and full of life.
Gourmie Goods was born out of frustration and a personal desire for better food, but it has grown into something much bigger—a movement to bring honest, real food back to the center of modern living.
We invite you to join us in this food revolution: reconnect with the true origins of your food and be part of the change toward a better, more sustainable food system.
Eat well,
