SEBASTOPOL, Calif. – The newest flavor at Green Valley Organics® is “peachy keen” for so many reasons. With its luscious, peach flavor and creamy texture, it may come as a pleasant surprise that this yogurt is lactose free and gluten free. Green Valley Organics is the only line of lactose free, real cow dairy yogurt, kefir and sour cream to be available nationwide.

Since its introduction at last year’s Natural Products Expo East, the brand has become a solid hit with retailers and consumers that can’t get enough of the real dairy lactose free line. Green Valley Organics responded to consumer demand for “more” with the introduction of its new Peach yogurt, which made its debut last week at Natural Products Expo East in Baltimore. Pieces of juicy, sweet organic peaches at the bottom of the cup bring a summer-fresh taste to the newest flavor in the line, which includes Plain, Vanilla, Honey, Strawberry and Blueberry in 6 oz cups. Green Valley Organics is introducing a new larger size (24 oz.) of it best-selling Vanilla yogurt. The Plain and Honey yogurt also are available in the larger size.

“The response to the brand has been phenomenal,” reports Green Valley Organics CEO and General Manager Ken Strunk. “Our products address not one, but two, of the most common food intolerances. We are lactose free, which means the 1 in 10 Americans who are lactose intolerant can enjoy real, organic cow dairy, and we are gluten free. But most important, our products are absolutely delicious and that’s why people are buying them.”

Adding to the health appeal of Green Valley Organics yogurt and kefir is the addition of Flourish® – a custom blend of 10 live active probiotic cultures that promotes optimal digestive and immune system health. Flourish delivers eight more health-promoting live active cultures than the USDA’s yogurt requirement of two.

Green Valley Organics uses organic peaches, blueberries and strawberries in its fruit-at-the bottom yogurt, and Grade A organic wildflower honey, natural vanilla and evaporated cane juice for a naturally sweet taste. The price of a 6-oz. yogurt is about $1.39 – $1.59. A 24-oz. container is about $3.99, and is available in Plain, Honey and now Vanilla.
