Rainbow Seeds | Freeze Dried Fruity Candy
I cannot say enough good things about this seller or this product. The only downside is these grapes are so good I can eat a bag in 5 minutes! They are addictive!
I love cherry flavored things, I love vanilla, and freeze dried apple slices are one of the few healthy snacks that I actually enjoy. These were as good as I'd hoped! The texture is good; the bags have enough O2 absorbers to withstand even the humidity of the far Southeast. They were well packaged and shipped and arrived in good time. These (and the Sugar and Spice slices) taste better than the commercial brand, the texture's just as good, and while I haven't done a cost breakdown to see if it's cheaper than the commercial stuff at the very least I got my money's worth (and then some).
I got these because I wanted to support a small business instead of just picking up a small bag for a premium price in the grocery store or on Amazon. These taste WAY better than the commercial stuff, and the texture is nice. It's well packaged and has enough O2 absorbers to keep the slices nice even down here in the deep Southeast.
My little one absolutely LOVES these grapes. She has tried the cotton candy grapes also and loves them as well. Thank you guys for an amazing product and customer service!
These are going into our emergency stash that we started about two years ago so we have not tried them yet. But everything else we have tried from here is absolutely amazing. They also have the BEST long term storage packaging that I have ever seen.
I haven't tried these yet but I am sure they will be amazing like all of their other products that I have tried. My little one is addicted to the grapes. Thank you guys for all that you do for those of us who don't have freeze dryers.
My daughter loves these. Thank you guys again for another amazing product.
This has become one of my favorite shops on Etsy. They have amazing customer service

We Believe in PRESERVATION:
Tradition
The Olienyks come from multiple generations of farmers, food producers, determined settlers, and entrepreneurs. It's in our blood.
Environment
We love our earth. Our freeze-dried products reflect a novel way to celebrate our connection to earth and culinary abundance.
Good Food
Natural State Freeze Dried provides you and your family with high nutrition freeze-dried food options for a variety of uses and situations.
The Olienyks come from multiple generations of farmers, food producers, determined settlers, and entrepreneurs. It's in our blood. We believe if something is worth doing, it's worth doing well and honest, and those values carry every decision made at Natural State Freeze Dried.
Craig and Rachel are both licensed mental health counselors, and while we believe in nurturing mental well-being, we recognize that good food and food security are primary components of overall well-being.
Feeding America has been a family value for generations, and preserving that tradition is incredibly valuable. We believe in freedom to choose what we eat, what is in our food, and from where it comes. We believe good food is healing and the energy put into making quality products matters.
Freeze-drying on a non-industrial scale is a very recent accomplishment and offers an exciting opportunity for us to offer wholesome food products in a new and long-lasting form—carrying on the tradition of generations of farmers and food producers.
We love our earth. We believe that she can provide all things necessary for our health and well-being. However, society has developed a mostly unsustainable method of managing these resources. The pandemic showed us that just-in-time inventory is a horribly flawed model for food security.
We never know the next event that could cause disruptions in food supply chains or crop failures. Careful planning and consideration is essential for both short and long-term food security and freeze-dried foods should play a key role in your family's food planning. Storing up for lean times is age-old wisdom for good reason.
It is our goal to help you enjoy the best, highest quality freeze-dried food and confections available. In addition to careful quality control and meticulous attention to detail, we take steps during our process to keep our earth the beautiful place it is.
We ship our products in recyclable cardboard boxes containing starch-based packing peanuts that disintegrate in water and are 100% biodegradable. Have fun watching the packing peanuts disintegrate in water. It's fun! It's especially fun for young ones you may have in the home—bonus entertainment!
Freeze-dried foods provide you and your family with sustainable, quality, high nutrient food options regardless of market conditions, environmental calamities and/or shortages. Many freeze-dried foods will last up to 25 years in 7-mil Mylar bags with oxygen absorber packets if kept out of extreme conditions.
Careful planning and consideration is essential for both short and long-term food security. Freeze-dried foods should play a key role in your family's plans.
