Choose options
This broccoli is sourced from either Spain or the Netherlands. Please rest assured that both sources cultivate the broccoli to the same strict EU organic standards for superior quality. Please note that we cannot accept requests for a specific source country.
In an effort to reduce environmental waste, this product includes pieces of the whole broccoli plant including some very small cuts and stem-only pieces. Thank you for your understanding.
Please note that the package is perforated to prevent bursting, so there may be small holes around 1 to 5mm. To avoid leaks, please move the contents to another container before thawing. Please rest assured there is no issue of safety or quality.
High-quality broccoli, certified organic in both the EU and Japan. Each pack contains 300g (10.5oz) of bite-sized pieces that have been flash-frozen to lock in maximum freshness and flavor. Grown with care on organic farms in Spain or the Netherlands, the broccoli is blanched to preserve its vibrant color, as well as the natural texture and nutrients. Completely free from preservatives, sweeteners, coloring, artificial flavors, and even salt, this broccoli is a healthy and convenient choice for snacking, cooking, or baby food. Convenient, clean, and ready when you are.
This broccoli delivers full flavor that lets you truly enjoy the fresh, natural taste. Because it’s only lightly blanched, it retains a pleasant crunch and light aroma of fresh greens. The versatile size makes it perfect as a side for steak or grilled meats, as well as a great addition to salads, stir-fries, casseroles, or a creamy broccoli cheddar soup. It’s also an ideal ingredient for lunch boxes. The convenient portion size makes it easy to use, and it doesn't take up too much space in your freezer. No prep needed—just open the bag and cook straight from frozen.
For those who prefer a bulkier option, we also offer organic broccoli in a 1kg (2.2lb) pack from another producer.
About Certified Organic
This product is certified organic in both the EU and Japan according to strict standards. But what does certified organic mean when it comes to fruits and vegetables?
✔ Strictly tested for E Coli, coliforms, molds, yeasts as well as listeria and salmonella and therefore meets very high microbiological safety standards.
✔ Free of harmful synthetic chemical inputs such as fertilizer, pesticides or any food additives.
✔ Free of genetically modified seeds (non-GMO)
✔ The farmland and soil in use are free of any chemical treatments.
✔ Organic produce is heavily regulated. Producers and importers are checked and inspected by governmental bodies or certified third parties. Organic certification requires detailed bookkeeping and documentation for 100% traceability. "Certified organic" is a protected phrase and the use is legally restricted.
✔ Organic farming is more sustainable when it comes to holistic food production. The lack of harmful pesticides is better for the environment.
✔ Organic produce comes mostly from family-owned farms that own smaller acres of organic land.
It is also important to mention that organic produce is more cost-intensive. Organic farming has lower yields compared to conventional farming and is oftentimes more labor-intensive as well. Additionally, organic certification and audits require annual fees for producers, exporters, and importers resulting in higher prices for the end consumers.
Please note that non-GMO and chemical-free produce will often have a minor degree of defects; these may include individual differences like slight deformities, discoloration, and under/over ripeness. In rare cases there may be insect damage, scratches, or mold which cannot be seen during inspections. However, these are not harmful and can simply be removed. Thank you for your understanding.
