The Nature’s Path EnviroKidz cereal is a new range of breakfast products positioned as the first USDA Organic school-compliant cereals in the US to provide a nutritious option for children. The cereal comes in two flavors including Monarch Magic and Choco Chimps that boast cinnamon and chocolate flavors, respectively. The cereals are being provided to children at schools in California as part of the National School Breakfast Program thanks to a partnership between Conscious Kitchen and West Contra Costa Unified School District Nutrition Services (WCCUSD).
Vice President of Mission and Strategy at Nature's Path Jyoti Stephens spoke on the new Nature’s Path EnviroKidz cereals saying, "This program has been a labor of love as part of our mission has been to make organic food more accessible to more people. With many of us at Nature’s Path being parents ourselves, we wanted to give students a nutritious, organic breakfast that can help set them up for success. We’re excited to introduce our cereals to participating schools and look forward to expanding even further over the coming year.”
