Partners for our Free Acres Recipe, Miller Poultry provides us with a reliable, consistent source of USDA certified organic, free-run chickens that are raised in smaller flocks on family farms. This remarkable-quality organic chicken with USDA/MOSA/BRC/GAP certifications is the single source poultry protein we use in our Gather Free Acres recipe for dogs and cats.
Producer Partner of Organic Peas
Farmer Direct Co-Op
Partners for Free Acres & Endless Valley Recipe, Farmer Direct is a farming cooperative based in Saskatchewan, Canada. More than 60 participating family farms grow certified organic oil seeds, oats, lentils, beans, wheats, ancient grains and peas to the Canadian Organic Regulation, USDA National Organic Program and the European Union Organic Standards.
Producer Partner of Msc Certified, Sustainably Harvested Krill
Aker BioMarine
Partners for our Free Acres Recipe, Aker BioMarine’s extraordinary sustainability practices are critical in our decision to partner with them. The krill we use in Gather is fished from the oceans surrounding Antarctica, using proprietary Eco-Harvesting™ technology. This prevents by-catch (fish and animals other than krill) and brings the live krill onto the ship where it is processed immediately to ensure maximum freshness. Aker BioMarine is certified by the Marine Stewardship Council.
Our Sustainability Standards
Every partner we consider as a provider of ingredients for our Gather recipes is required to meet our strict criteria for sustainability, based on five key pillars:
Following humane animal welfare practices
Protecting water supplies and limiting water use
Protecting farmer, rancher and producer livelihoods
Ensuring the preservation of natural resources
Actively working to preserve biodiversity
