This new platform of nutrient-dense pouch options and snack bars continues Once Upon a Farm's mission to deliver the same farm-fresh flavors its community has always loved, now designed to support key development milestones through childhood, whether you're introducing solids, navigating toddler pickiness, or packing school lunches.

"As a parent, watching your child grow is made up of many small, meaningful moments, and food plays a big part in so many of them," said Cassandra Curtis, Co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer at Once Upon a Farm. "From introducing your baby to their first taste of protein to handing your six-year-old a snack before their first practice, we want to be there for every stage, bringing the same organic, farm-fresh nutrition families have trusted from the start. We're not just expanding our product portfolio; we're growing up right alongside your family."

Based on first party research, 72% of parents said they prefer their baby's meat puree to be fresh and refrigerated over highly processed and shelf stable.

Thoughtfully crafted for little ones' protein needs, the Meat and Meat & Bone Broth pouches deliver at least 4g of protein from high-quality meats, including grass-fed beef, free-range chicken and turkey, and raised with no added growth hormones*, no antibiotics, and year-round outdoor access**. Paired with vibrant herbs and spices, each recipe introduces flavor-forward nutrition to help support palate development from the first bite.

Nearly half (46%) of U.S. parents with children ages three and younger say protein is an important attribute when choosing foods for babies and toddlers, according to Kantar Profiles/Mintel (December 2023).

"Early childhood is a period of remarkable brain and body growth, and offering a variety of nutrient-dense foods, including protein, fruits, vegetables, and legumes, can help support growth, energy, and even palate development."
