As a parent, you strive to feed your kids the best possible foods with maximum nutrients because you know that what they eat as babies and toddlers will shape what they eat as kids, into adolescence and adulthood.

While there are a myriad of options available for baby and toddler foods, Once Upon a Farm blends are different than traditional baby food pouches because they are cold pressed, which means they are not heat pasteurized.  When you cold press baby food, it maintains the nutrients of the fruits and vegetables the way nature intended.  It’s just like making it yourself and freezing into little ice cube trays and thawing for later.  But honestly, who has time for that?

Once Upon a Farm Blends are organic, have amazing and unique flavor profiles that you just don’t find from other brands, oh and did I mention the company co-founder and Chief Brand Office is actress and mom, Jennifer Garner.

Once Upon a Farm is on a mission to Feed Fresh with the first fruit and veggie blends that are cold-pressed to lock in nutrients and set up little ones for a lifetime of healthy eating.

The organic, ready-to-eat eat baby food pouches, toddler blends, apple sauces and smoothies for kids  have no preservatives, concentrates or pre-processed purees.  They have no added sugar, are packaged in a BPA-free pouch that is recyclable, and they lock in nutrients of the fruits and veggies the way nature intended them through their cold-pressure process.

You can find Once Upon a Farm blends in the refrigerated section of your local store near the kids yogurts.  Because the baby foods are so fresh, they need to be refrigerated to maintain their freshness – but they do not contain any dairy, despite their placement in the dairy aisle.

They are truly as fresh as it gets without making it yourself.   Once Upon a Farms sent me a sample pack of the fruit and veggie blends and I tasted each of the flavors available as did my 18 month old nephew Michael, my 12 month old nephew Evander, my 2 year old niece Melina and my 3 year old niece Eviana.  Read on for our review below.  Bottom line – THEY LOVED THEM!

Once Upon a Farm Flavors Available at Safeway

Oh My Mega Veggie – contains organic apple, carrot, beet, ginger and flax seed.  This blend has a unique flavor profile from the ginger and beets.  It has a refreshing apple flavor and a slight earthiness from the beets and carrots, but overall, it was really good and my nieces and nephews enjoyed it.  This is a stage 2 baby food, perfect for babies and toddlers 7 months or older.

Mama Bear Blueberry – contains organic apple, sweet potato, blueberry and coconut oil.  This blend is really good – all you taste is the apple and blueberry and it’s super refreshing cold.  My nieces first comment on this flavor was, “mmm, yummy” and then commented several times that it was “cold, cold” – so that was definitely a change for her as most of the other pouches she’s had are normally room temperature – so she really liked the cold pouch. This is a stage 2 baby food, perfect for babies and toddlers 7 months or older.

Wild Rumpus Avocado – contains organic pineapple, banana, avocado and spearmint.  This smoothie is delicious – the pineapple flavor is super pronounced but it has a very slight banana profile and the spearmint definitely comes through at the end and is really refreshing.  My nephew Michael loved this blend and couldn’t get enough of it! This is a stage 2 baby food, perfect for babies and toddlers 7 months or older.

Rasp-pear-y Vanilla Fairy – contains organic pear, raspberry, date, raw pumpkin seeds, quinoa, beet, and vanilla extract.  This blend is has a delicious raspberry and pear flavor profile, however it is not as smooth as the other blends, in fact it needs a little chewing, which is the raw pumpkin seeds in the blend.  This is a TOT stage 4 food, perfect for babies and toddlers 12 months and older.

Green Kale and Apples – contains apple, banana, kale and hemp seed. This blend tastes like and green apple, banana and kale smoothie.  I made them weekly, so it was a super familiar flavor profile and the kids really enjoyed it.  You don’t taste the kale at all.

Look at those eyes, Michael is such a cutie and a perfect model for this baby food because he loved it and he wanted his picture taken with the package!
