Are your products certified Organic?
Yes! Everything Grandy Organics makes is certified organic! Our products are certified organic by theย Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association. Certification ensures that the land used to cultivate the ingredients made for our products has no chemical fertilizers, no pesticides, and no genetically modified seeds. Organic farming has been shown to improve soil and plant health, wildlife habitats, and biodiversity. We believe that

Is Grandy Organics Kosher?

How do you ensure your Gluten-Free products are gluten-free?
At Grandy Organics, we take gluten safety seriously. Thatโs why many of our products are certified through the Gluten-Free Food Program (GFFP), endorsed by the National Celiac Association and recognized as a leading standard in the industry. We source oats exclusively from trusted North American suppliers who use dedicated fields, equipment, and facilities to prevent cross-contamination. Every batch is tested to contain less than 5ppm of glutenโthe strictest standard in the industryโso you can snack with confidence, knowing our products meet the highest levels of quality and care.
Are your ingredients Fair-Trade certified?
While not every product we make at Grandy Organics uses Fair-Trade certified ingredients, the MAJORITY DO. We pride in sourcing not only the highest quality ingredients but also, ingredients that protect our planet and protect our people. We are big believers in Fair-Trade and are always on the lookout for ways to incorporate Fair-Trade ingredients into our
products.
How are allergens handled?
Our state-of-the-art food product facility has high health and food safety standards. Our team continuously cleans and checks surfaces for allergens throughout the day and sequences the products we produce to avoid allergen cross contamination.
What are your products sweetened with?
We love to tap into nature's sweetness! Our products are sweetened with either organic wildflower honey, pure organic maple syrup or organic coconut nectar! Our newer granolas (Dark Chocolate Sea Salt and Apple Crisp) are sweetened with a touch of Fair-Trade brown sugar.
How do you source your ingredients?
We support organic farmers, locally and globally. Ingredients that we source from outside of North America arenโt currently available in the quantity and/or quality that we require from within the continent. Grandy Organics only buys ingredients from suppliers who meet the strict quality control standards set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and National Organic Program (NOP) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We source with care. We know that sourcing with care protects our planet, our people and delivers the highest quality, most delicious products on the market.
Is your packaging recyclable?
Our current packaging is not recyclable, however it is something we are working hard on finding a solution to. We do recommend reusing or repurposing the bags, they are great ziplock bags for bulk purchases, pantry staples, or sandwich bags! Donโt forget you can also find Grandy Organics Coconolas, granolas trails and Fair-Trade cashews in bulk bins across the country.
How should I store my Grandy Organics products?
Our products have a shelf life of 12 months when stored in a cool dry place. Some best practices for extending shelf life are keeping the zippers sealed or moving your products to a bulk resealable container. We have also found that storing our Coconola in your freezer can keep the coconut flakes extra crunchy and can make for a great topper on smoothies or bowlsโฆ. Or as quick snack!
Why is there a California Proposition 65 warning on my Grandy Organics granola?
Californiaโsย Proposition 65 (also known at Prop 65)ย is a lawย requiring all businesses to include a warning label on products that may expose consumers to even very small amounts of certain naturally occurring chemicals likeย cadmiumย andย acrylamideโwhich are found in many foods such as grain and nuts.ย While the levels are often well below those considered harmful by other health standards, Prop 65 has stricter requirements for labeling. Thatโs why you might see this warning on our granola, even though itโs made with clean, organic ingredients. Learn more atย ย www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
What are cadmium and acrylamide?
Cadmiumย isย a mineral thatโs found in soil and water. Because plants absorb it as they grow, small amounts can end up in whole foods like grains, nuts, and vegetables.
Acrylamideย forms naturally in some foods when theyโre cooked at high temperatures, like baking, especially in foods made from grains or potatoes.
Why donโt other states require a Prop 65 warning?
Proposition 65 is a California-specific law with its own unique standards. It requires warnings at much lower levels of certain chemicals than federal or international guidelines. Thatโs why most other statesโand even countriesโdonโt require labels for the very small, naturally occurring amounts found in foods like granola or chocolate.
