Cascadian Farms and Farmville Giveaway



About Cascadian Farm®

Cascadian Farm®, a pioneer in the organic food industry, is blazing yet another new trail as they become the first official branded – and organic – crop to be offered in Zynga’s popular online game, FarmVille. Joining forces, Cascadian Farm and Zynga will provide an innovative gaming experience for FarmVille fans, breathing virtual life into real world organic farming within the largest online agricultural space.

Beginning July 19 through July 26, Cascadian Farm will provide FarmVille players with a variety of benefits including, coupon offers, organic farming and green living tips, as well as the opportunity to build up their farm quickly. During the week-long partnership, branded Cascadian Farm organic blueberry crops will be the most profitable FarmVille crop offered in the game, to beginner and expert FarmVille players.

The brand has also recreated the real Cascadian Farm, located in the Upper Skagit Valley of Washington's North Cascade Mountains. The virtual Cascadian Farm will carry out the brand’s mission to grow good and honest food by encouraging FarmVille users to harvest crops that are free from synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. All of their online fruits and vegetables will be planted with the same ideals and values found in organic culture, while also sharing the rewards from playing the game with Cascadian Farm’s online fan base.

To further connect with other FarmVille users, Cascadian Farm has created an avatar farmer called “Farmer Joe Cascadian,” who was inspired by the brand’s real-life farmers. “Farmer Joe” will serve as the “virtual” tender to the brand’s own FarmVille farm and users can request to be his neighbor by “friend-ing” him online at www.facebook.com/farmerjoecascadian and by using the FarmVille application to become his neighbor in-game.



Thanks to my membership to MyBlogSpark, I was able to try out a some Cascadian Farm products. I was sent the Cascadian Farm Fruit & Nut Granola Cereal and the Harvest Berry Chewy Granola Bars which my husband and I both enjoyed. The granola bar tasted chewy and fresh. We love the cereal with milk but we've also enjoyed eating it just the way it is as a snack. However, my 2 years old daughter did not care much of it which I am not surprise because she is a very picky eater. I love that they are not just healthy but also organic!

I have the same prize pack to giveaway to one lucky reader. One winner will receive the Cascadian Farm Fruit & Nut Granola Cereal, Harvest Berry Chewy Granola Bars, a coupon for a FREE Cascadian product and a Farmville card. The same prize pack that I received.

  4. It is important because it indicates that we are not mindless consumers, and that we actually take the time to make the best food choices for our family. Which isn't to say that organic is always the best choice. Sometimes when money is tight, you choose the lesser of two evils.
