Their ready-made stocks fortify homemade soups and stews, and instant packets can be enjoyed when you travel so you’ll never miss out on the nutrition you need.

The History of Bare Bones

Bare Bones was founded by Ryan and Katherine Harvey, a husband and wife team with individual histories that made them passionate about healthy living. For Ryan, it was seeing his father pass away unexpectedly at a young age. Afraid of facing the same outcome, he turned to a life of health and wellness, joined the military, and adopted a paleo diet. During culinary school, he often made stocks from scratch, which gave him the initial idea for what Bare Bones would later become.

Katherine’s journey to nutrition started at a young age when she was diagnosed with arthritis in her feet at eighteen. As a ballet dancer, she struggled to cope with the reality of never dancing again without pain. Ryan gave her a book about whole foods shortly after they met, and Katherine began experimenting with the paleo diet, which ultimately helped improve her pain. Together, they wanted to create a line of products that could nourish everyone in the family using sustainable ingredients and time-honored methods.
