From the very beginning, our containers have been and remain BPA and phthalate free.
Our packaging is from the safest food grade materials and certified for use in infant
and baby food products. Health concerns with using plastic containers for food is mostly
related to resins used to make the plastic more durable, such as phthalates and BPA.

As eco-parents and health enthusiasts we definitely experienced a challenge upon learning
that our innovative pouches would not be recyclable due to the unique blend of foil and BPA-free
plastic. With safety and nutrition as our top priority, we chose this pouch because it ensures a
natural way to preserve the ingredients, and allows us to gently cook our baby food at a much lower
temperature than the traditional jarred food—further preserving the nutrients in each meal. The
resealable cap is a
#2 plastic and therefore highly recyclable and we encourage this at
the very least.

As a Certified B-Corporation, an important goal of ours is to reduce our environmental impact
through waste reduction and lessening the energy in the manufacturing and transportation of our
products. We have confirmed from our supplier and several independent studies, that the largest
carbon footprint in the life cycle of a product actually occurs during the manufacturing and
transportation process. We are happy to say that our light-weight, soft-sided pouch is
10x lighter
than the traditional glass jar and cap, and requires less time & energy to produce. All of which
leads to less transportation in freight, reduced greenhouse gases, and lower costs.
We continue to strive for innovative packaging and processes that are as green as they can be without
jeopardizing the integrity of our ingredients and products. The packaging industry is showing progress
and we all hope to get there soon!
