Sustainability is at the heart of Moonshot Snacks’ mission, beginning with its ingredients. The two primary ingredients in the brand’s crackers—organic artisan wheat and sunflower oil—are both traceable back to farmer and field, and the wheat is grown only two miles from the mill where it becomes flour.
Shorter supply chains mean less time on the road, bolder flavor—and a smaller carbon footprint. Moonshot’s founder and CEO Julia Collins is proud her brand has been carbon neutral since day one.
Perhaps the most impactful initiative, though, is Moonshot’s commitment to regenerative agriculture. The brand is committed to supporting new topsoil creation and works with farmers who have built soil health right into their cultivation methods. From cover cropping to reducing tillage, Moonshot is leading the way in promoting a regenerative supply chain. For its climate mission and taste, Moonshot won the Expo West Virtual 2021 NEXTY Award for Best New Savory or Salty Snack.
Moonshot also invites its consumers to participate in its sustainability mission, with a new commitment to find a home-compostable packaging solution.
