Quinn isn’t “just another pretzel.” We’re the [insert favorite "irresistible" adjective] snack that’s filled with real ingredients, fanatical food ethics, and neurotic quality. Put even simpler, we make snacking better-er. Made from recognizable ingredients like root veggies and whole grains, there’s nothing weird in here- and nothing empty about these snacks except the bag when you’re done. As a Certified B Corporation (and self-certified ingredient nerds), we’re committed not just to delivering innovative snacks made from responsibly sourced ingredients, but to using business as a force for good. We know food system change is about progress, not perfection- and by sourcing a portion of our ingredients from regenerative farms, we play our part in creating a food system that nourishes and empowers people and the planet. But if you just love that Quinn is delicious? That’s great, too.

As America’s original 100% grass-fed organic dairy, Maple Hill’s mission is to bring healthy, organic, 100% grass-fed dairy products to families nationwide. We only sell grass-fed organic dairy because we believe products produced through these regenerative agricultural processes are healthiest for consumers, and are done in a way that is healthiest for the environment. Maple Hill’s organic grass-fed milk supply starts with the health of the soil, the grass, and the happy healthy cows on the family farms with whom we work. As a result, healthy soil is the cornerstone of everything we do. We work tirelessly within our network of organic 100% grass-fed farmers to develop and implement practices that result in the regeneration of the land through the management of organic grass-fed cows. When managed in harmony with nature, grazing cows are one of the most effective tools on Earth for igniting the life in the soil – which is the foundation of the carbon cycle, soil fertility, economic viability for farmers and the nutrition we receive from our food. As consumers and retailers alike begin to understand the 100% grass-fed organic value proposition, we have grown our Milkshed from two farms to 130+ in 2022. Maple Hill is now one of the fastest-growing dairy brands in the market. What started as a specialty regional yogurt company in 2009 has become a national dairy brand. Consumers can find Maple Hill in 6,000+ retailers across the U.S., including Whole Foods Market, Sprouts, Kroger, Publix, Walmart, Natural Grocers/Vitamin Cottage, and Safeway, and in thousands of independent grocers and specialty retailers. Maple Hill is rooted in our desire to provide the best nutrition for our own families and that idea is still the “heartbeat” of our company. We believe that 100% grass-fed organic dairy farming done right is the pinnacle of organic; it creates the best nutrition for consumers, and leaves the soil better than we found it. It doesn’t get any better than that!
