(Virtual Press Office) - (June 2012 – Brooklyn, NY) -- Little Duck Organics is a Brooklyn based company born out of founder Zak Normandin’s desire to find organic, no-sugar added snacks he’d feel comfortable giving his young children. In 2009, Little Duck Organics became a reality, growing from a single-man operation in his basement to a burgeoning company with vibrant products sold in thousands of stores nationwide.

Little Duck Organics has a very close relationship with each of the farmers who grow our ingredients. Like, first name basis status. We source directly from farms, sans the layers of middlemen that oftentimes taint an otherwise efficient process. This direct relationship not only ensures a fair price for the farmer, but also creates a sustainable long-term supply chain relationship. With our Tiny Fruits product line, fruit from these farms is cut in to teeny tiny pieces (perfect for little fingers) & processed right here in the US of A. Our drying process combines low temperatures & vacuum pressure, resulting in a convenient kids snack that's just as good as a fresh cut piece of fruit -- without nixing the nutritional benefits. This process, paired with comprehensive organic & NON-GMO testing, and a partnership with 1% For Humanity, the company has committed 1% of all company revenues to support humanitarian efforts in local farming communities to make Tiny Fruits a snack that is high in quality, and fun for all.

Tiny Fruits are the certified organic, no-sugar added, Non-GMO Project verified 100% fruit snacks recommended for the four feet and under crowd. Tiny Fruits are easy for teeny hands (six months and up) to hold and gluten-free for all to enjoy. Tiny Fruits are available today in four flavors: Apple & Banana, Strawberry & Mango, Blueberry & Apple and NEW! Pineapple & Mango.

Tiny Fruits are available at Whole Foods Market, Earth Fare, Hannaford, Fairway Market, Sweetbay, Central Market, Stop & Shop, Diapers.com, FreshDirect.com and other fine retailers nationwide. MSRP $3.99
