Go Wild
Go Wild isn’t just their name. It’s their relentless mission to free your mind and mouth to explore uncharted worlds of wholesome flavor. Come join their tribe and unshackle your snacking with wildly unexpected blends of nourishing, non-GMO ingredients. When Go Wild crafted their Deconstructed Desserts and Nut and Veg Protein Mixes, they threw conventional thinking out the window and decided to Go Wild!
Early Bird
Early Bird dishes out wholesome old-fashioned goodness by baking their granola in tiny batches and using the three most integral ingredients at a cook’s disposal: olive oil, salt and love. Each crunchy-salty-sweet mouthful is slow roasted until it sings in perfect snacking harmony. By the handful, spoonful, or bagful, Early Bird granola serves up a tasty and toothsome treat. In 2008, Nekisia Davis started baking, bagging, and selling her own granola at local markets like the Brooklyn Flea and Early Bird Foods & Co. was hatched.
Jubilee (2oz)
Ju.bi.lee – n. Any season or occasion of rejoicing or festivity. This recipe is a high-end affair. It might as well be champagne and caviar.
Farmhand’s Choice (2oz)
One day back in 2008, Early Bird Foods was born when Farmhand’s Choice came out of our oven. Inspired by Grandma and Texas, she’s our first flavor, our first love, and the OG of the EB family.
Kiss My Oats (2oz)
Pucker up, buttercup. These oats are ready for a smooch. Fabulous on their own or on top of a mountain of yogurt and fruit. It’s made without nuts, but with plenty of love!
Matzo Project
In 30 years of friendship, it never occurred to either of them to become business partners. Until they realized that, in 90 years, it never occurred to anyone else to make a better tasting matzo. Summer Camp friends Ashley Albert and Kevin Rodriguez set out to bake a new take on the culturally beloved, but traditionally flavorless box of matzo. Instead, they got a super-snappy, extra-sturdy, crazy-versatile cracker that goes with every single thing they’ve tried to put on it. After selling out their first trial batch in a single day, the two friends moved out of their tiny commissary kitchen and into a larger Kosher bakery in Brooklyn to take their unleavened show on the road.
A super-snappy, extra-sturdy, crazy-versatile snack that goes with every single thing we’ve tried to put on them.

Tony’s chocolate is 100% slave free, but their vision is to make all chocolate 100% slave free. Tony’s Chocolonely– Crazy about chocolate, serious about people.
Classic milk chocolates, now bite sized! It was the first flavor we ever made, back in 2005. We gave it a screaming red wrapper to attract attention to our main mission – 100% slave free chocolate.
Karma Nuts
Karma Nuts was founded by Ganesh Nair, who married his Masters in Health Science & Technology from MIT and 10+ years of diabetes care work with his family’s deep legacy in the cashew business. Ganesh saw an opportunity to develop an alternative to the less than healthy oil-fried cashews that were normally seen on supermarket shelves. In 2014 Karma Nuts introduced a line of minimally processed cashews by leveraging the family’s 85+ years of experience in the cashew business. The mission of Karma Nuts is simple – put goodness into the world whenever you can. Karma Nuts is an Asian Owned Business and is proudly registered with the USPAACC.
