Made With Local made it's debut on a small farmer's market table in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 2012. Their mission was simple and to the point: provide tasty, nourishing snacks using ethically sourced ingredients from local producers. Now sold in major Canadian grocery stores, Made With Local has managed to scale into a national brand, all while keeping their foundational values close to heart.

Throughout their growth, Made With Local has remained dedicated to using ethically, transparently sourced ingredients, strengthening their local community, and prioritizing real, nourishing foods.
