Growing better, for a better future.
Gerber Is Reimagining Food for Baby
In our changing world, doing Anything for Baby means Gerber has to rise to the challenge. So that's exactly what we're doing. We've embarked on a mission to reimagine food for baby and create food that's as good for the planet as it is for our little ones. We're going green in our power, packaging and planting to create something completely unique: Climate Forward Nutrition for baby. Because healing the land means healing their future--and there's nothing we wouldn't do for the ones who matter most.
#ClimateForwardNutrition
Carbon Neutral
We’ve been dreaming big and together, all our initiatives will work to help reduce our greenhouse gas emissions until we reach our goal.
Our Carbon Neutral product(s)
- Most Gerber Organic Range (USA stock keeping units (SKUs)) and Gerber Natural Range in glass jar and pouch formats (USA SKUs) have been certified as carbon neutral by the Carbon Trust, in accordance with PAS 2060, the international specification for carbon neutrality.
- The certification was achieved through measuring the footprint, developing a carbon management plan and making a reduction commitment, and compensating for the remaining emissions by purchasing high quality offsets. For more information review our QES document and Carbon Trust’s carbon footprint label page.
Regenerative Farming
The food we grow should be just as good for the planet as it is for our babies, we’re putting regenerative farming practices to work and creating sustainable research farms that are pioneering ways to nourish the earth, day after day.
Food made better
At the end of the day, we’re 100% committed to baby. Our little ones deserve a world that keeps on giving, and when our planet is healthy, food is nutritious, and our kiddos are happy.

Doing the right thing for baby and for planet go hand in hand. We’re eager to create a healthier world for all.

This is only the beginning.
In time, and by research, our efforts toward sustainability will only get richer.
DOING OUR PART
The Power of 1 Million Trees
Trees are natural superheroes. They're able to retain carbon in the soil while purifying our air, encouraging biodiversity, and keeping our earth healthy. That's why we went big and planted one million trees in the US in 2021.
