Once Upon a Farm has introduced a new range of organic food products for babies and children, with availability beginning in early April 2026 at select US retailers and online.
The new line-up includes refrigerated, cold pressure-protected meat pouches for babies, marking the company’s first entry into meat-based blends. The range comprises meat, meat and bone broth, and legume blends, each delivering at least 4g of protein per pouch.
The meat blends feature organic chicken, beef or turkey. Meat and bone broth variants incorporate beef or chicken bone broth, while the legume blends include combinations such as black bean and chickpea. The products will be stocked primarily in refrigerated baby food sections.
For older children, the company is launching smoothies with protein and probiotics, containing 4g of protein and added probiotics. New flavours include strawberry splash and orange mango twist. These will be positioned in dairy or produce aisles, depending on the retailer.
The portfolio also introduces Power Wheels, soft and chewy snack bars formulated with 4g of protein, whole grain oats and fruit and vegetable ingredients. The bars are available in strawberry shortcake and blueberry crumble flavours and will be sold in the kids’ bar aisle.

Every product in this line-up is crafted to deliver farm-fresh flavors and provides quality parents can feel amazing about."
