Are all of your soups certified organic?

Yes. All of our soups are certified organic by Oregon Tilth. Supporting the food system, from farmers all the way to end consumers is a big job, and an important priority.

Are all of your soups certified gluten-free?

No. We are discontinuing our participation in the GFCO gluten-free certification program because we perform both internal and third-party testing to ensure no gluten is present in our products - with oversight from the FDA. Internally, we test our products using AOAC (Association of Official Agricultural Chemists) approved methods down to 5 ppm. Gluten-free certification only requires less than 10 ppm, compared to our internal levels of 5ppm. We are proud to have higher standards than most certifying organizations! We are not certified gluten-free but our products are definitely gluten-free.

Are all of your soups Non-GMO?

Yes, we are proud to say that all of our ingredients are Non-GMO.

Do you offer vegan or vegetarian varieties?

Yes. Please visit the Products page to learn more about these options.

How long is the soup good after opening?

We recommend eating the soup within 3-4 days of opening the protective film seal.

Can I freeze the soup to prolong its shelf life?

Yes, Our soups freeze beautifully! Our soups are best fresh but if you'd like to freeze them, be sure to freeze before the "Best By" date on the bottom of the container. When you are ready to enjoy, put in the refrigerator overnight to thaw and then heat as usual.

What are the sodium levels in the soup?

Our soup varieties contain 360-780mg per serving. The officialDietary Guidelines for Americans recommends limiting sodium intake to less than 2,300mg a day – or 1,500mg if you’re age 51 or older. Other companies use salt as a preservative, which is why most canned soup has very high sodium levels. We use salt in moderation as a spice.

Do you use preservatives?

No. We never use preservatives, artificial ingredients, or fillers.

Why is fresh soup better than canned soup?

Fresh soup simply tastes better and is often healthier than sodium and preservative-loaded canned soup. Canned soups can be several years old by the time you eat it, but our fresh soup is intended to be eaten within a few weeks of purchase. But who are we to say, try for yourself!

Does the soup need to be refrigerated?

Yes! Our soup is prepared and stored fresh for maximum flavor and nutrition, and like any refridgerated product it is perishable.

Where can I find the soup in my local grocery store?

At most grocery stores our soup is available in the prepared foods aisle or the deli refrigerator where other fresh products are sold. Find a store near you!

How long should I heat up my soup?

Microwave: Empty entire tub into microwave safe bowl, heat on high for 2 minutes, stir well, and heat on high for one more minute. Stove Top: Empty entire tub into saucepan, put on medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
