This new Tender Greens anniversary campaign is being run in celebration of the brand's 20th year in business as a way to mark the occasion and also support a charitable cause. The campaign is debuting this month and starts off with the return of the brand's Cowboy Cookie for a limited time, and will see 100% of the profits generated from its sale during June being donated to the non-profit organization Nourish California.
The campaign will also be rewarding fans with some exclusive discounts for its loyalty rewards members that will be rolling out on a weekly basis. This includes such perks as a 10% discount, a complimentary drink, a free dessert and double points, depending on the week.
Executive Head Chef Oliver Plust spoke on the Tender Greens anniversary campaign saying, "Two decades later, we’re still grounded in the idea that great food creates connection. The Cowboy Cookie has been part of Tender Greens since the beginning, so bringing it back for the anniversary felt especially meaningful. Partnering with Nourish California also gave us an opportunity to celebrate 20 years while supporting food access efforts across California."
