Certified organic foods must meet the strict standards set by the USDA’s National Organic Program. Organic farming boosts soil fertility and leaves the planet in better condition for generations to come.
Gerber has proudly produced quality organic food since 1997, when we first introduced GERBER® TENDER HARVEST® organic foods. Gerber’s certified organic foods adhere to the strict standards of the USDA’s organic program. In addition, we require that our fields undergo rigorous soil testing for pesticides and other substances—a step beyond the USDA requirements.
In addition to being certified organic, GERBER ORGANIC foods contain no artificial flavors, color, added salt, or added starch. GERBER ORGANIC whole-grain cereals contain our NUTRIPROTECT™ nutrient blend that is specifically formulated for our cereals with iron, zinc, and six B vitamins for healthy growth and development. The NUTRIPROTECT nutrient blend provides your baby with an excellent source of:
- Iron to support mental development
- Zinc—a major building block of baby’s healthy immune system
- Six B vitamins to help convert food to energy
GERBER ORGANIC fruit and vegetable purees contain the same important nutrients as fresh fruits and vegetables. Many GERBER ORGANIC fruits and vegetables are either an excellent source of the:
- Antioxidant vitamin C—an essential building block of baby’s natural defense system; or
- Antioxidant vitamin A to help support a healthy immune system
