SunRidge Helps Protect Wildlife with Launch of Berries & Chocolate Antioxidant Mix
Company donating 1 percent of sales from new natural product to Defenders of Wildlife
From FoodCEO Magazine – see online article here foodceo.com
Pajaro, Cal. – June 24, 2010 – SunRidge Farms, a long time supporter of wildlife preservation and sustainable farming, has partnered with Defenders of Wildlife in an effort to help preserve and protect animals and plants throughout the world. In addition to its annual donation, SunRidge Farms is now donating 1 percent of sales from its newest all natural product, Antioxidant Mix, to Defenders of Wildlife.
“Our customers are looking for ways to support good causes through the food choices they make every day,” says SunRidge Farms founder and president, Morty Cohen. “They can feel good about eating our new mix, and we believe our collective efforts are going to make a difference in the health of animals and their surroundings in the long term.”
Packed with protein, fiber, and a hearty helping of the immune system boosting antioxidants Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, lycopene, and beta carotene, Berries and Chocolate Antioxidant Mix is non-GMO and 100 percent vegetarian. All natural, without artificial flavorings and preservatives, the mix includes a hand-selected blend of sun-ripened blueberries, dark chocolate stars, freshly roasted almonds, walnuts, cranberries, cherries, cashews and peanuts.
“We’re grateful to have the support of environmental stewards like SunRidge Farms,” said Rodger Schlickeisen, President and CEO of Defenders of Wildlife, an organization dedicated to the protection of all native animals and plants in their natural communities. “The company has donated more than $20,000 to Defenders over the past two years, and sets a model for progressive business leaders around the globe.”

All products, including the newest Antioxidant Mix, are made in a sustainable, solar-powered manufacturing plant in Pajaro, California, and are shipped using the company’s fleet of biodiesel delivery trucks.
Antioxidant Mix is available at retail outlets throughout the United States and online at the www.SunRidgeFarms.com and the Defenders of Wildlife Online Marketplace. It is available in both bulk and packaged bags, with a suggested MSRP of $4.79 for a 6.5oz. bag.
