Earthbound Farm is celebrating 40 years of organic farming with new offerings including its line of Organic Salad Kits featuring dressings made with 100 percent organic avocado oil and its Limited Harvest Wild Red Arugula blend. These new products will augment the company's portfolio with additional fresh, flavorful, and healthy options to grow the salad category.
Avocado oil is growing in popularity and consumers are increasingly seeking healthier oils for salad dressings. These kits will address consumers' desires for healthier dressing options while also providing smaller format organic kits to accommodate evolving consumption occasions. Earthbound Farm's Organic Salad Kits also feature fresh ingredients including greens, vegetables, and premium toppings. They come in an array of flavors and textures such as Chipotle Ranch, Golden Balsamic, Truffle Caesar, and more.
