Franklin Farms has entered a partnership with Purple Carrot, the 100% plant-based meal kit company. As a consumer brand and leading supplier of meatless offerings, Franklin Farms brings more than twenty years of expertise in plant-based protein foods and innovation to Purple Carrot’s meal kit offerings.

“Garden Inspirations by Farm Rich” is a new line of plant-based foods expanding options for flexitarians, vegetarians and anyone looking to reduce meat consumption in their daily diet. This line includes appetizers, snacks and meal solutions made with plant-based meats and other wholesome plant-based ingredients.

Sweet Earth is adding to its frozen retail lineup of meatless, plant-based snacks and entrées this summer with a variety of new flavors, sizes, products and suggested retail pricing (SRP), including burritos, sausages, jerkies, bowls and deli slices.
