Introducing solid foods to your baby is a huge milestone that comes with a lot of decisions. When are you going to start? Are you going to start with purées or finger foods? Which brand do you trust? And once you’ve chosen a brand, where do you start with their assortment?

While we can’t make those decisions for you, we can help make them easier! First, here’s how to know your baby’s ready for solids (check with your child’s pediatrician if you’re not sure). And here’s some more info on Once Upon a Farm baby food!

Why Start Solids With Once Upon a Farm?
