Meet emerging food & bev brands in Emerging Baked Goods, Sauces, Non-Alc Beverage, and more
Hey there and welcome back to Farm2Me. We help you discover the best CPG brands, emerging trends, and the tech stacks powering them.
We hope you are staying cool! This week we have a new back to school snacks (Brewer’s Crackers, Bjorn Qorn) and New Independent Grocers nearby – a guide of grocers selling Farm2Me Sustainable & Healthy emerging snacks to feed your kids at lunch and after school, and grocers focused on transparency. As well as a unique tool to discuss (Keep Cart) how to keep your Shopify discount coupons from leaking out on the internet..
Now, let’s get started 🛠️
Brewer's Crackers is an Up-Cycled cracker company driven to reduce food waste in the craft brewing industry. US Breweries in the US produce over 1 billion tons of edible food waste (spent grain) each year that ends up in our already crowded landfills!
Brewer's Crackers saves this spent grain and turns it into flatbread crackers and chips. Try them now and save the planet!

Bjorn Qorn products use homegrown non-gmo popcorn and season with all natural, gluten free, and vegan ingredients. There is no butter or cheese! BjornQorn's special flavor comes from nutritional yeast, which is a high protein and high B-vitamin seasoning that is popular in vegan cuisine, but is especially great on popcorn.
BjornQorn is popped using solar-powered equipment, making this popcorn good for the environment too.

Ebo Grocery is one of our favorite Boston emerging grocers is the community. Whether a tiny intimate dinner or a raucous rosé party, each product provides a sustainable good food, good drink, and a fun experience for parents to get out and try something you never have before. The mystery of it means everyone has to let their guard down a little bit and the levity of it means we are all that much more willing to get to know each other. It's one of my favorite ways to hang out with old friends and make new ones and I love being a part of the EBO community!
