Description
Holle Cow Bio Stage 1 Infant Formula is a top-quality formula suitable for babies from birth to 6 months. This Holle organic formula features a simple list of ingredients: biodynamic organic skim milk, organic whey powder, organic maltodextrin, organic vegetable oils, and essential vitamins and minerals. This formula can be used on its own as a complete source of nutrition or as the ideal supplement to breast milk. Holle Organic Baby Formula Stage 1 is entirely free of synthetic nutrients, artificial preservatives, coloring, and flavors. Holle's Demeter farmers work daily to preserve the natural order and are dedicated to ethical farming practices. As your little one ages, we also offer Holle Organic Baby Formula in Stages 2 and 3.
Holle is one of the world's most well-respected organic baby formula brands, with a decades-long commitment to using only high-quality, sustainably sourced ingredients from well-cared-for animals. Their cow's milk formula is made from Demeter-certified, grass-fed cow's milk. It exceeds the EU requirements set by the European Food Safety Authority for organic certification, which are much stricter than organic standards in the United States.
