Family first.
Emma and Zoey are the inspiration behind building something meaningful enough to carry forward.
The family behind Bella Terra Oils
Bella Terra Oils began with an unexpected gift on a hiking trail in California. More than a decade later, that small moment has grown into a family business serving everyday oil users, makers, salons, studios, and growing brands.
Our unexpected beginning
On a family hike in California, Josh and Kinga found a hidden $100 bill that had been left as part of a children's-book promotion. What could have become only a fun story felt like an invitation to create something lasting. They invested that unexpected gift in a dream of their own.
That dream became Bella Terra Oils: a homegrown Ashland business focused on straightforward carrier oils and hydrosols, thoughtfully sourced through trusted relationships and carefully bottled in Oregon.
Nature provided the first investment. Family gave the business its purpose.
What still guides the work
Orders are packed, products are tested, and plans are discussed around family life. That closeness keeps the decisions practical: clear choices, responsive help, and products people can confidently make part of a routine or formula.
Emma and Zoey are the inspiration behind building something meaningful enough to carry forward.
Josh's U.S. Army service shapes a straightforward, dependable approach to customers and the work.
Kinga immigrated from Hungary and became a U.S. citizen in 2019. Bella Terra reflects the life she and Josh built together.
Success means more than sales. It means healthier routines, stronger small businesses, and being useful when neighbors need help.
Giving is part of the story
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Bella Terra Oils partnered locally with Blinking Owl Distillery to help produce and distribute hand sanitizer for frontline workers and community organizations. Bella Terra supplied and hand-delivered bottles, turning available resources into practical help.
That same spirit continues through support for local organizations, military candy drives, and the everyday choice to invest in the community that supports the business.
