Hey there! Neil Dudley, VP of Pederson’s Farms, here. I’m so happy that you’re joining us for the #JanuaryWhole30. I wanted to pop in and let you know about three ways our team at Pederson’s Farms wants to help you stay prepped and eating well through your Whole30.

1 | We’re Passionate about Pork

Whether you’re currently doing the #JanuaryWhole30 or planning to start one soon, we’ve created more than 20 Whole30 Approved® pork products to support you. Pederson’s products are easy to find … they have the Whole30 Approved logo right on the label and are available online and in stores everywhere.

I don’t mean to brag, but we produce some really awesome, responsibly-raised, high-quality pork. Our pork tastes delicious and is raised without the use of antibiotics or growth stimulants, and never fed any animal by-products. Our products are minimally processed with no artificial ingredients, preservatives, nitrates/nitrites, gluten, lactose, or MSG … and wait for it … no sugar! As in “no sugar bacon?” You bet. We’re famous for it.

2 | Our Whole30 Meal Prep Box Makes Meal Planning Easy

I know the idea of Whole30 meal planning can be a bit daunting at first. Preparing to prep and cook nearly all of your meals at home means you need to find compatible recipes and compatible proteins to keep you going all month long. That’s why we offer our Ultimate Whole30 Meal Prep Box.

This Box was designed give you peace of mind when it comes to finding compatible, high-quality protein. It stocks your freezer with 10 of our most popular Whole30 Approved pork products in one easy order. The pricing works out to about $3.50 per meal … it’s hard to beat that deal! Plus, when you purchase a bundle, we’ll donate $10.00 towards our ongoing effort to support children with Type 1 Diabetes.

3 | We like tasty Whole30 recipes just as much as you do

In fact, we’ve created a 7-day Whole30 Meal Prep Guide stuffed with delicious Whole30 recipes. We’ll share that for free when you order a Whole30 Meal Prep Bundle. It’s full of delicious, satisfying, easy recipes inspired by the phenomenal Whole30 community. Want proof? I’m sharing 3 of my favorites in this blog post … just scroll down!
