Farmer Focus, a 100% organic and Humane Certified chicken company with a mission to promote and protect generational family farms, announced that its pre-seasoned chicken line is now available at grocery retailers, including Harris Teeter, Kroger, Fresh Direct, Giant Eagle, MOM's Organic Market and Fresh Thyme.
The pre-seasoned line is gluten-free, low-to-no sugar, and offers globally inspired flavors developed for the discerning tastes and demands of home cooks. This news coincides with the recognition of Farmer Focus’ Zesty Peruvian Organic and Free-Range Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast as a NEXTY Award finalist in the category of best new Meat, Dairy, or Animal-Based Product. Two other items from the pre-seasoned line — Toasted Lager Organic and Free-Range Half Chicken and Rich Red Curry Organic and Free-Range Chicken Thighs — earned NEXTY Awards in September 2021. NEXTY Awards are bestowed upon products that display outstanding innovation, inspiration and integrity.
“Our new pre-seasoned line helps retail partners address shifting consumer tastes which were accelerated by COVID. Restaurant closures during the pandemic led to many people making a sudden switch to cooking at home more frequently, quickly resulting in mealtime monotony,” said Kathryn Tuttle, chief marketing officer for Farmer Focus. “Our new pre-seasoned product line was crafted for health-minded shoppers and includes some adventurous and seasonal flavor profiles to help home cooks recreate exciting restaurant experiences.”
Farmer Focus’ organic and free-range pre-seasoned product line includes globally inspired and trend-forward flavors, such as Zesty Peruvian Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast; Savory Chophouse Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs; Rich Red Curry Bone-in Skin-on Chicken Thighs; Toasted Lager Half Chicken; and Lemon and Cracked Pepper Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast. Harris Teeter will offer the Lemon and Cracked Pepper Boneless Skinless Breast; Zesty Peruvian Boneless Skinless Breast; and Savory Chophouse Boneless Skinless Thighs. Kroger will carry the Toasted Lager Half Chicken. The full line will be available through Fresh Direct. Various pre-seasoned products will be available at additional retail locations.
