2025: This Year, Together, We…

Tags:

As 2025 comes to a close, we’re reflecting on a year shaped by bold innovation, deepened community impact, and an unwavering commitment to nourishing people and planet. From new organic products landing on shelves to meaningful steps forward in regenerative organic agriculture and food access, this year proved once again that collective action is a powerful force for good. 

Below is a look at how—together—we moved closer to a healthier, more sustainable food future. 

…Brought Organic Innovation to Every Lifestyle 

In 2025, we introduced some of our most exciting innovations yet—each crafted to deliver bold flavor, functional nutrition, and uncompromising organic integrity across our family of brands. 

…Made Breakfast More Functional & Flavorful 

This year, we leaned into functionality and indulgence: 

  • Love Crunch Protein Granola launched in two decadent flavors—Organic Dark Chocolate & Almond Butter and Organic Peanut Butter—each delivering 10g of plant protein per serving. 

  • Nature’s Path Protein Granolas joined the lineup in Blueberry Cinnamon and Maple Almond Butter, offering 10g of plant-based protein, deep crunch, and organic whole-grain goodness for high-energy lifestyles. 

These innovations reflect our continued belief that organic foods should nourish body, mind, and planet—with no compromises. 

…Created Wholesome Snacks for Growing Families 

A standout Canadian innovation this year, Love Child Organics Oaty Bites quickly became a parent favorite: 

  • Made with organic whole-grain oats, real fruit, and no artificial flavors 

  • The first oat-based toddler snack with only 5g of sugar 

  • Soft-baked and perfectly sized for tiny hands 

Oaty Bites strengthen Love Child Organics’ leadership in nutritious, organic solutions for young families—nourishing little ones at every stage of development. 

…Rolled Out Big Crunch and Bigger Conversations 

Que Pasa brought the crunch in 2025 with the Canadian debut of Organic Rolled Tortilla Chips, inspired by the playful, bold snacking formats trending across North America. 

  • Crafted from organic, volcanic stone-ground corn 

  • Available in two spirited flavors: Chili Lime and Spicy Queso 

  • Designed for dipping, sharing, and sparking conversation—the soul of Que Pasa 

This launch boldly expands the brand into youth-driven snacking while staying true to our Always Organic promise. 

…Nourished More Families Than Ever Before 

With food insecurity rising across North America, 2025 called for action—and together, we met the moment with compassion and scale. 

…Doubled Our Annual Organic Food Donations 

Through Bite4Bite® and longstanding community partnerships, we typically donate $2 million in organic food each year. But 2025 demanded more. 

This year, we contributed: 

  • An additional $2 million in organic food to meet heightened need 

  • Further support timed with Love Crunch’s 15th anniversary 

  • A total of $4 million in organic food donations—our largest annual giveback to date 

These contributions nourished families across food banks, school networks, and community organizations throughout North America. 

…Met Communities Where They Needed Us Most 

Recognizing shifting needs, we expanded our regional donation partnerships in Chicago, IL; Toronto, ON; and Blaine, WA. 

In each of these communities, we donated $150,000 worth of organic meals, helping ensure that families facing food insecurity had access to nourishing, high-quality food when it mattered most. 

These new collaborations strengthen our commitment to meet people where they are—and to bring the promise of “Always Organic” to places where access is often limited. 

…Helped Communities & Farmers Thrive From the Ground Up 

Our purpose to leave the earth better than we found it lives not only in our products, but in the gardens, farms, soil, and systems that sustain us all. 

…Helped Community Gardens Flourish Across North America 

Now in its 15th year, Gardens for Good: Plant It Forward™ continued to grow community resilience through urban farms, school gardens, newcomer programs, youth training, and neighborhood food access. 

In 2025: 

  • 20 organic community gardens across the U.S. and Canada received grants 

  • Each garden was awarded $6,500 

  • We surpassed $1 million in total program support—three years ahead of schedule  

These gardens do more than grow organic food—they grow connection, empowerment, and local food sovereignty. 

…Supported Regenerative Organic Farmers Leading the Future of Food 

Through the Regenerative Organic Oats (ROO) Program, our multi-year partnership with Canadian Organic Growers continued to expand its reach to support farmers in their transition to regenerative organic management with key data, resources, technical support and a community of practice to innovate and thrive together.  

This year: 

  • More than 30 farmers participated across the Prairies 

  • Stewarding over 40,000 acres of regenerative organic oat fields 

  • ROO Field Days brought farmers, agronomists, and soil-health experts together for hands-on learning 

  • Real-world data on soil organic matter, biodiversity, and carbon capture helped demonstrate that regenerative organic agriculture is both scalable and essential 

The ROO Initiative continues to prove that restoring soil health is not just possible—it’s powerful--through strong community centered initiatives that put people & planet first. 

…Strengthened Our Team to Support Our Growing Impact 

2025 was also a year of meaningful internal growth. We welcomed new mission-driven leaders across North America, including our first-ever Chief Customer Officer, Laura S. Chamberlain—a role dedicated to accelerating U.S. expansion, deepening customer partnerships, and elevating our omnichannel strategy. 

This expansion reflects our long-term commitment to ensuring that as we grow, we grow thoughtfully—guided by purpose, grounded in values, and united by our belief in a better food future. 

…Brought Organic Nutrition to More Students 

Through our continued partnership with Conscious Kitchen and the West Contra Costa Unified School District, we expanded access to organic cereals in U.S. school breakfast programs—bringing Choco Chimps, Monarch Magic, granola, and more low-waste ECOPAC formats into additional classrooms. 

This meant more students enjoyed: 

  • Organic whole-grain cereals 

  • No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives 

  • Lower sugar options 

  • Food made without synthetic pesticides, supporting healthier bodies and a healthier planet 

In 2025, we engaged more districts, administrators, and educators to help pave the way for broader adoption—bringing us closer to a future where organic breakfasts are available to all children. 

 

Looking Ahead: Always Better Together

The story of 2025 is a story of collective action—farmers building soil, schools nourishing students, gardens growing community, families choosing organic, and partners working alongside eachother to strengthen access to healthy, organic, sustainable food. 

Together this year, we: 

  • Launched innovative new organic products across the U.S. and Canada 

  • Doubled our organic food donations to address rising hunger 

  • Supported regenerative organic agriculture across tens of thousands of acres 

  • Helped 20 organic community gardens thrive 

  • Expanded our purpose-driven leadership team 

  • Brought organic breakfasts to more schools and students 

But the most important part? We did it together. 

As we look toward 2026, we carry forward the momentum, the partnership, and the shared belief that nourishing people and planet is not just possible—it’s powerful. 

Here’s to continuing the path toward better, together.
