Lucy's Granola

Lucy's Granola is a golden mix of whole grains and unprocessed ingredients. Oats, wheat and spelt are combined with almonds, coconut, cranberries and raisins.

Gladstone's Under the Sun

Gladstone's Under The Sun is a family company nestled in the midst of Acadia National Park and the blueberry downs of Downeast Maine. Inspired by the miles of hiking, biking, and kayaking opportunities, our family created the Maine Munchies® product line that invites all to "share in a healthy snack with the call of Maine." Our goal is to produce and promote the healthiest snack foods by using as many Maine agricultural ingredients as possible. Wild Maine blueberries and cranberries are principal ingredients.

As a socially responsible company, it is our goal to develop a Maine business that works with and promotes the local business community and the healthy aspect of its agricultural products. We continue to strive for more healthful and fresh snack foods that truly honor their special origins and a simpler, more natural way of life.

Therefore it is with great pride that the family delivers only the "Best Under The Sun." Only the finest ingredients are selected for both their health benefits and healing powers in the creation of these delicious and nutritious products.
