Looking for a detox plan, a lifestyle change, or even just a snack with a natural pick-me-up? Juice Ranch is the place to be.
This haven for health-food seekers sells a plethora of cold-pressed juices, superfood smoothies, hot healing tonics, and probiotic-rich toasts. Founded in 2013, Juice Ranch developed a loyal following and now operates three locations: Santa Barbara, Carpinteria, and Montecito, which opened its doors on New Year’s Day, 2018, just days before the devastating mudslide.
According to owner Scott Walker, the business he started with his wife, Erin Gomez, was born out of passion and good intentions. Their ideology and lifestyles were so integrated into the juicing culture that celebrating it became “like a full-time job,” he explained, “so [they] made it one.” They believe there is power in high-vibrational foods, which are those that have a greater level of light than density, providing nourishment to the body and assisting with detoxification.
