Iowa Natural Premium Soy Oil is the only soy oil of its kind in the world; NATURALLY cold pressed, Non-Genetically Modified, No-Trans Fat, Low Saturated Fat and traceable back to the farm at which it grew and it is grown in the state of Iowa!
Innovative Growers is made up of 40 farmers all over the state of Iowa and was formed in 2000 when a group of Iowa farmers with the assistance of Iowa State University Extension created value-added agriculture products. The farmers saw an increasing concern over trans-fat and recognized that there was nothing in the consumer market place that provided and soy bean oil with no trans-fat and low linolenic acid, so they all banded together to produce something locally. The idea is to grow it locally, provide something they could be proud of and bring it to the consumer marketplace.
The development of the specialty beans at Iowa State University by Dr. Walt Fehr was about a thirty year process. Lots of time and care was taken in naturally breeding the soy beans. Dr. Fehr’s creation of the food grade soy beans with low linolenic acid and low saturated fat prompted the group to bottle the natural soy oil for consumer distribution. Identity preservation and traceability is the cornerstone of the group.
Innovative Growers went the extra mile to process the soy oil naturally by expeller pressing the beans, rather than processing it with the use of chemicals like hexane which is more commonly done because of cost and efficiency.
Iowa Natural Premium Soy Oil is great for stir frying or making French fries because it has a high flash point. It is also used in baking cakes and cookies by replacing other oils or even butter. Iowa Natural makes salad dressings, marinades and bread dipping sauces. Get creative! Iowa Natural Premium Soy Oil has no over powering taste so it will naturally take on the flavors you add to it.
Iowa Natural is a unique company that has a genuine interest in providing the best product of its kind available and it does; Iowa Natural is the healthiest soybean oil in the world. The soybeans in Iowa Natural Soy Oils are 100% family farm nurtured right in the heartland of the USA, because if good folks use good ingredients, great things happen
The company itself exists throughout the heartland as well, offices spanning the state all consisting of the farmers and extended family. Each individual farm, is its own corporate office. We don’t have bricks and mortar but we have a family who banded together to put all the key elements in place to get Iowa Natural off the ground and running because we have the confidence that we have grown something special.
