Meat your Maker!

The meat-eaters and "flexitarians" among you have been asking for it, and now it's here. Fresh, delicious organic meats from Mclean Organic Foods. Look for yummy European-style bacon, turkey grillers, and sandwich favourites including roast turkey and black forest ham.

In the mid-1990's, Garth Mclean (founder and president of Mclean Organic Foods, Inc.) left the conventional meat industry to explore a career in the natural food industry. During this transition, Garth realized that nitrite-free deli meat products were not available in Canada. He was determined to serve the public good by satisfying the public need for a natural deli meat product free of traditional processed meat additives.

Garth began developing their select line of nitrite-free deli meats, and launched the ‘Natural Farms’ deli meat line at Capers Community Markets' stores in Vancouver, BC. Since then they've become Mclean.

The word "clean" in the company name inspired the company's mission statement: "To produce Clean & Lean™ meat products that nourish the body while supporting natural, humane, and sustainable farming."
