KATE FARMS' INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO NUTRITION OFFERS A NEW OPTION FOR PEOPLE WITH HEALTH CONDITIONS OR ON A WELLNESS JOURNEY
-
Kate Farms was founded by parents determined to save their daughter’s life after a diagnosis of “failure to thrive,” a condition when children don’t gain weight at the expected rate. Born with cerebral palsy, Kate Laver used a feeding tube for nourishment but couldn’t tolerate the existing formulas made of synthetic ingredients heavy on corn syrup and common allergens. At the age of five, she weighed only 15 pounds. Wondering why there was nothing on the market that reflected the fresh produce they found at the farmers’ market, Kate’s parents Richard and Michelle set out to create a solution for Kate. When the formula they devised helped their daughter gain weight, they started the company in 2012 to bring their products to a wider audience.
