Plant-based, organic nutrition. Made for tolerance.

About us

Kate Farms was founded when a little girl named Kate was failing to thrive because she couldn't tolerate any of the available tube feeding formulas. Her determined parents, Richard and Michelle, had the transformative idea to develop a formula using high-quality, organic, and plant-based ingredients without the common allergens and ingredients often found in traditional formulas. Today, Kate is thriving, and Kate Farms is now the #1 recommended plant-based brand.* Kate Farms offers medical formulas for children and adults to be used as sole-source or supplemental nutrition for oral and tube feeding. They are available nationally and eligible for insurance coverage with Medicare, Medicaid, 30 states for WIC and private insurance. Kate Farms formulas are made with organic pea protein, fiber, and phytonutrients, and made without the top nine common allergens or artificial colors or flavors. Kate Farms can be accessed in more than 1,000 US hospitals. For more information on our full product portfolio, visit www.katefarms.com. *Independent plant-based formula survey.

    Kate Farms Peptides are made for tolerance. Just ask Jenna T., who has been using Kate Farms for six years: “At age 13, I experienced an acute worsening of chronic symptoms I had endured my whole life. The epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting grew so intense that I could not sustain my own nutritional needs and had to receive all nutrition through a NJ tube for 10 months. I was initially prescribed a milk-based formula; as someone with a milk-protein allergy, this was unsustainable. After four months of using this formula, and countless hours of research, we stumbled upon Kate Farms Peptide 1.5 and requested it from my dietitian. For the first time in months, I found myself with enough energy to participate in light physical activity, and even resume attending high school social events. It was a complete turnaround from how I had felt on previous formulas. The summer before my second year of college, I began experiencing similar symptoms to those before. I was placed on a liquid diet by mouth, and the Kate Farms Standard 1.0 Chocolate kept me fueled until we could diagnose and treat the new condition I had developed. This formula supported me while continuing my studies and working at college despite the challenges I faced. For the past six years, Kate Farms products have greatly assisted me in my times of need, supporting my nutrition while I navigated diagnoses and treatments, and providing the energy I need to continue living my life to the fullest!” - Jenna T.  Request samples for your patients today: https://lnkd.in/gR-QRfDZ #realpatientstories #tubefeeding #enteralnutrition #registereddietitians
