happy family

Many of you know that I am a new mom, and being a new mom there is a wealth of information that I don’t know yet (I’ve been told it’s a learning process by many veteran moms). So when the idea of introducing solid foods came a reality, I did my research. Now I have been very particular with what I have eaten myself before my son, so finding a food company that keeps that in mind was important – and when I was contacted by Happy Family about their baby food products, I knew I was in good hands!

Those not familiar with Happy Family, they are a mom owned and operated business that launched on Mother’s Day 2006. Happy Family is a leading premium organic food brand delivering optimal nutrition for the entire family. In 2011, founder and CEO Shazi Visram earned the title of Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year for New York. Happy Family has been named as one of the fastest growing organic food companies in the nation by Inc. magazine for two years running, and was named “Rockstar of the New Economy” by Fast Company in 2012. The company has since grown into a comprehensive line of products for the whole family. Today they provide organic foods for babies, toddlers, kids, and even adults! Happy Family has many parternships (including: Healthy Child Healthy World, and B Corps – to name a few).

My son was given the go ahead by our pediatrician at 4 months to start introducing him to solids, which was a very exciting time for both of us. So many fruits and vegetables to choose from Happy Family. From Stage 1 foods, my son honestly loved everyone he ate – from the pears to the carrots ( I even sampled them myself, and they are really good and fresh tasting!) For cereal the Happy Bellies Brown Rice Baby Cereal was my sons favorite (as you can see below).
