Organic camelina seed oil is very similar to flax in appearance and properties but it has a more stable shelf life and is not prone to rancidity. This delicious oil can be used for food and cosmetic purposes and contains omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E. Great for the skin, hair and eyes, camelina is also popularly used as an oil additive for our animal companion's food. This oil makes an excellent choice for natural cosmetics and hair care formulas.

Considered by many as a weed, it was known as the "gold of pleasure", and is still sold and marketed under this name in some parts of the world. Camelina is a small annual shrub with small pale yellow or greenish yellow flowers. It is referred to as false flax because it is often found growing in flax fields. Traditionally it was used for oil in lamps, and as feed for livestock. Recently, it has been looked at for its viability as a bio fuel alternative to corn and as a nutritional supplement for farm and domesticated animals. Because of its unrefined nature it has a deep color. The aroma can naturally fluctuate between batches from mild to herbaceous, and occasionally earthy or oceanic.
