History of French Meadow

Gazing out onto the pristine fields of French Meadow, Lynn Gordon was attending a cooking class
and pondering a new recipe for bread that would accommodate her macrobiotic diet. The diet
prohibited her from eating breads loaded with yeast and sugar (the natural leavening process breaks
down complex carbohydrates and the glutens, rendering the bread more digestible and the nutrients
more easily absorbed.) Thus, the idea for the all-organic and functional French Meadow Bakery was
born.

Opened in 1985, French Meadow Bakery is the longest continuously-running certified organic bakery
in the U.S. Lynn’s early vision for a variety of delicious, innovative healthy breads and sweet goods
has blossomed into an extensive and award-winning product line of gluten-free, vegan, yeast-free and
kosher parve foods known for their great taste, texture and functionality.

French Meadow still uses only natural ingredients and no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.
The bakery is USDA-Certified Organic, Quality Assurance International Certified Organic, Certified
Gluten-Free by the Gluten Free Certification Organization, a program of The Gluten Intolerance
Group, and Certified Low Glycemic for Diabetics by The Glycemic Research Institute.

Lynn’s passion for unique and trend-setting functional foods for all consumers still manifests itself in
such popular products as Woman’s Bread, Men’s Bread, Healthy Hemp Bread, Healthseed Spelt Bread,
and delectable cookies, cakes and desserts. Fourteen new and trendy products were introduced
within the last year. All products are also sold nationally in most supermarkets today. French
Meadow Bakery’s founding commitment to be a sustainable company that educates its customers on
the lifelong benefits of organic foods and which supports small farmers continues. The bakery still
uses only certified organic grains and non-GMO ingredients that are grown in balance and harmony
with nature, sustaining the health of the planet.

Twenty-three years after Lynn's auspicious vision in that now-famous field, French Meadow's
mission now reaches a welcoming international audience with its new strategic business alliance with
Rich Products Corporation.
