Little Creek Dressing
Little Creek Dressing of Kelowna, BC, hit a major milestone this year, becoming the first producer of salad dressings in Western Canada to be certified organic.
Little Creek Dressing, produced in Kelowna for almost 25 years, has received its organic certification after a year-long process.
The dressings have always consisted of strictly organic ingredients, but as of March 12, 2019 all five flavours of Little Creek Dressing are now fully certified as Canada Organic Regime (COR) organic.
"Becoming certified organic by pro-cert has always been a goal of ours,” says Little Creek founder Donna Denison. “Certification supports our founding values—to create wholesome, nutritious and flavourful foods that support healthy living and a healthy planet. We also hope to expand our customer base and start exporting internationally to retailers; we want Little Creek Dressing to kickstart a nutrition revolution!"
Little Creek can be found in more than 500 grocery stores and specialty shops across Western Canada, and also has international “fans” who mail order the dressing, usually by the case.
As of now, Little Creek Dressing is the only organic salad dressing produced in Western Canada, but Executive Director Jubi Steinhauer, Donna’s son, hopes this milestone sparks inspiration in other producers to seek Canada Organic Regime certification.
