Amy's Kitchen is an organic food pioneer. Since 1987, Amy's has cooked with delicious, non-GMO ingredients, making gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian frozen foods for all to enjoy.
It’s impossible to separate the birth of Amy’s Kitchen from the birth of Rachel and Andy’s daughter, Amy. Not only is the family business named after her, it’s in her DNA. In 1987, while Rachel was pregnant with Amy and on bed rest, Andy went looking for ready-made meals at their natural grocery. When he couldn’t find anything organic and vegetarian that satisfied their taste buds, they decided to make their own.
They started with a pot pie. Andy and Rachel made them by hand, sold them locally and Amy’s Kitchen began right out of their home. They thought they would remain a small company simply making pot pies, but pretty soon handwritten letters of thanks started pouring in.
People wrote letters asking for other products like pizzas and soups, so Andy and Rachel went back to the kitchen. Then letters came in about the difficulty of living with food allergies, asking for gluten free and dairy free options. So, of course, the Berliners went back to the kitchen again.
