For the last 44 years, Cascadian Farm has pioneered organic agriculture and produce in the United States. We were organic before organic was a trend, even before it was certified by the USDA. Part of our mission is bringing high quality organic frozen vegetables to consumers. We're always looking for ways to improve our products, so we've come to you for new ideas related to Cascadian Farm Organic frozen vegetables.

Deliverables

What's your idea for making Cascadian Farm Organic frozen vegetables a better line of products? We're interested in solutions that improve nutrition, make cooking easier, suggest tastier vegetable combinations, bring new forms of veggies to the line and help people eat more vegetables throughout the day.

Include the following in your solutions:

  1. Explain your new product idea in detail. What ingredients would you use to make your frozen vegetable idea? How would it be prepared? What would you name this product? How would it look, how would it be eaten, and who do you envision buying this product?
  2. What would the packaging of your product look like?
  3. Why would this product be popular among organic vegetable buyers? At what time of day would they use your product? Would it be a meal, or a snack?
  4. If applicable, attach a sketch or design to illustrate your product and its packaging.
    1. CRITERIA: Product ideas must be all organic, and can include non-vegetable ingredients. Ideas must be vegetable-centric: they don't need to be entirely vegetables, but shouldn't have grains or non-vegetables as their focus. Ideas that appeal to organic consumers and are unique to what is currently available at the grocery store are encouraged.
