The year-long collaboration aims to raise awareness about the importance of organic food and nutrition for developing children, highlighted by the launch of Stonyfield's YoBaby^® No Added Sweeteners organic yogurt pouches featuring Ms. Rachel

LONDONDERRY, N.H., April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Stonyfield Organic, the leading organic yogurt brand, is excited to announce a collaboration with Ms. Rachel, the beloved educator and content creator behind the Ms. Rachel YouTube Channel, to launch the "O is for Organic" program and unveil Stonyfield Organic's new YoBaby^® No Added Sweeteners yogurt pouches. The collaboration will emphasize the importance of nutritious food in fostering children's development to support their full potential. Together, Stonyfield and Ms. Rachel aim to educate families on the benefits of organic foods and create a brighter, healthier future for the next generation.

Stonyfield Organic's YoBaby^® yogurt is a line of whole milk yogurt made without the use of toxic persistent pesticides created just for baby. YoBaby^® yogurt is a great first food, as it's made with high quality ingredients parents can trust and a taste babies love. It also nourishes baby with real organic fruit, protein, vitamin D, and calcium.

Just like Stonyfield, Ms. Rachel believes that every baby deserves a bright future, which is why she devotes her time to fueling young minds with educational content that helps children learn and thrive. Through her collaboration with Stonyfield Organic, the two have teamed up to launch the "O is for Organic" program, featuring a series of fun, educational videos bringing their joint missions to life. The content series will be led by Ms. Rachel and designed to show the many ways that organic farming and organic food both fuel the future for our youngest generations, and why Stonyfield Organic's YoBaby yogurt is a great place to start with babies' first foods. The "O is for Organic" content can be viewed at https://stonyfield.com/ms-rachel/ where it will continue to be updated throughout the year.

As part of the "O is for Organic" initiative, Ms. Rachel will also be appearing on Stonyfield Organic's brand-new YoBaby^® No Added Sweeteners yogurt pouches, available for purchase in retailers nationwide today.

As part of this collaboration, Stonyfield Organic will be donating two hundred thousand dollars to help support kids in need. Both Stonyfield Organic and Ms. Rachel are passionate about fostering the development of the next generation and are looking forward to sharing more about this commitment.

"I believe every child deserves a strong start, and that begins with the love and care we put into their learning and their nutrition," said Ms. Rachel. "I'm so proud to work with Stonyfield Organic's YoBaby Yogurt to help families make informed choices. When we nurture little minds and bodies, the future is brighter for everyone."

"At Stonyfield, we've always been passionate about nourishing young bodies and minds with organic food, so we're absolutely thrilled to work with Ms. Rachel on the 'O is for Organic' program," said Gary Hirshberg, Stonyfield Organic co-founder and Chief Organic Optimist. "I have seen firsthand the incredible impact Ms. Rachel's educational content has had on my own grandchildren. Her ability to captivate and engage young learners is truly remarkable. This collaboration brings together our shared commitment to helping children thrive, and I am excited to team up to help families prioritize organic nutrition for their children's growth and development."
