You've heard of Boo Baskets, Brr Baskets, and Bae Baskets. Since it's February and love is in the air, Greenfield Natural Meat Co. asked the question: what do people love more than love? Bacon. So, they created the first-ever Bae-con Basket.
As an extension to Greenfield’s Low Carb(on) Diet platform that launched last summer with creative agency No Fixed Address, The Bae-con Basket reinforces the importance of showing love to Mother Nature with your food choices.
D’Arcy Finley, vice president of brand marketing at Maple Leaf Foods & Greenfield Natural Meat Co., said, “At Greenfield, we’re always looking for new ways to connect with our audience about the importance of choosing products made by a carbon-neutral food company. Using cultural moments as a way to let people know that they can enjoy what they love – and do good by the planet – is another way to engage people in our mission.”
This social campaign kicks off with a launch video and an influencer campaign highlighting the essential ingredients for the perfect Bae-con Basket. Twenty-five participants who follow Greenfield Natural Meat Co. (@greenfieldnaturalmeatco.us), like the post, and tag their baes will receive a curated selection of items to make their own Bae-con Basket.
Rena Menkes Hula, VP, group creative director at No Fixed Address said, “When we introduced the Low Carb(on) Diet last year, our goal was to build a platform that could not only showcase how delicious and easy it is to eat with the planet in mind, but one that could make a low-carbon lifestyle top of mind all year round. Knowing how passionate people are about their love of bacon, we saw a place to insert a cheeky sustainability reminder into the conversation this Valentine’s Day.”
With the introduction of the Bae-con Basket, Greenfield is reminding people everywhere that sustainability can be sexy, and that the planet deserves a little love too.
