Locally Sourced Soup Kits

SoupaPOTamus' Shelf-Stable Packs Go from Bag to Bowl in 20 Minutes

Soup is one of the quickest routes to warming, nourishing comfort, and SoupaPOTamusas assembles shelf-stable soup kits with produce grown in Upstate New York and other locally and ethically sourced ingredients for minimal prep and maximum coziness. These just-add-water soup packs are made to go from bag to bowl in about 20 minutes for feel-good meals that are full of rich, satisfying flavors.

SoupaPOTamusas' Quad Pack bundles four favorite varieties like gluten-free Creamy Potatomus for a smooth, creamy experience of potatoes, corn, celery, organic dairy, farm-made chicken broth, local herbs and spices, sea salt; and hearty White Bean Chili, a protein-rich option that pairs organic dry beans and potatoes with real farm dry dairy, onion, a farm-made bone broth and vegetable base, and a proprietary herb blend.
