FreshPaper was created by a young inventor who happened upon the active ingredients after accidentally drinking some tap water while visiting her grandma in India. Her grandma gave her a home remedy - a mixture of spices - which kept her from getting sick. After years of research and development, starting with a middle school science project, she discovered a new application of her grandma's generations-old home remedy - a remarkably effective way to keep food fresh! Founded in 2010 when she took handmade batches of FreshPaper to Farmer's Markets and street fairs in Cambridge, MA, ​today, FreshPaper is used by farmers and families across the globe, and we are establishing initiatives to benefit local food banks in the U.S. and small-scale farmers in the developing world. ​ FRESHGLOW is a social enterprise with the mission of “Fresh for All.”
