Hypoallergenic Properties

Does your dog suffer from food allergies or sensitivities? Our insect-based dog food uses Black Soldier Fly larvae, a novel protein source, to reduce allergic reactions common with traditional proteins like chicken, beef, or dairy.

Environmental Sustainability

Switching to insect protein is a game-changer for sustainability. Farming Black Soldier Fly larvae uses far less land, energy, food and water while producing minimal greenhouse gases compared to traditional livestock. Our farm’s efficiency allows us to harvest an incredible 52 times a year—far outpacing traditional livestock, with just one annual harvest for beef and only eight for chicken!
