Michele's Granola

Give One for Good Food® With the belief that everyone deserves good food, and a passion for using the power of business for positive social change, Michele created the Give One for Good Food® program through which we donate 1% of our sales to organizations leading the way towards a healthier, more equitable food system. To date, Michele’s Granola has donated more than $300,000 to help nourish and unite people with fresh, nutritious food. In 2021, Michele’s Granola launched the Michele’s Granola Small Business Challenge in partnership with Whole Foods Market’s Whole Cities Foundation to encourage other like-minded, mission-driven food and beverage businesses to provide Community First Grants to locally-led nonprofits across the country that are most successfully addressing the nutritional needs of their communities. We Are Supporting Local Food Production. Good food is produced nearby, in small batches, by people we know. Our donations support local food entrepreneurs and urban farmers who are providing fresh, nutritionally balanced food to our communities. We Are Improving Access To Healthy Food. In 2006, Michele helped open a farmers' market and develop a program to match food stamp dollars in a low-income neighborhood to make fresh food from local farms more readily available. Michele’s Granola continues to support these programs to encourage healthy eating for all while advocating for local food agriculture. We Are Providing Nutrition Education. Knowing where our food comes from and how it gets from the farm to our plates is one way to encourage a healthy diet, especially in young people. To uphold this belief, Michele's Granola supports organizations that offer cooking and nutrition programs to children and adults throughout our communities.
