Meet the Shulz Family, the force behind Healing Home Foods. What started as a quest by Shelley to use food to heal her family has become a company dedicated to producing top-quality, flavorful foods containing real nutrition.
After her son, Jackson, was diagnosed with Autism in 2006, Shelley removed all dairy, gluten, grains, starches and preservatives from his diet, carefully sourcing all of his food and preparing everything in her own kitchen. The positive changes in Jackson’s mood and health were immediate and profound, leading her on a quest for knowledge about how food contributes to our mental and physical health. A cancer diagnosis for her husband in 2007 led her to dig even deeper to find ways to help her son and husband heal. Throughout her search for nutrition-plus-taste, she tried just about every gluten-free product on the market, only to be disappointed by taste and/or texture. This inspired her to produce and innovate foods that can play a role in the lives of those who favor gluten-free, vegan, and raw regimens—and offer nutritious alternatives to those tired of shelf-stable processed foods.
Shelley’s vision is what drives Healing Home Foods, and centers on her quest to combine nutrition and taste to produce foods that indulge both body and soul. Through years of experimentation, while constantly educating herself about raw food preparation, Shelley experimented widely with flavors and textures in the dehydration process, as well as in baking, to try and produce something totally unexpected and distinctive.
All products produced by Healing Home Foods are gluten and dairy free. Some products are baked; many are raw—dehydrated at very low temperatures to maximize their nutritional value. All nuts and seeds are soaked and sprouted to remove enzyme inhibitors, making them easier to digest. You will never find soy products, artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives in any of the HHF products.
