We exist to make food the world loves. But we do more than that. General Mills is a place that prioritizes being a force for good, a place to expand learning, explore new perspectives and reimagine new possibilities, every day. We look for people who want to bring their best—bold thinkers with big hearts who challenge one other and grow together. Because becoming the undisputed leader in food means surrounding ourselves with people who are hungry for what’s next.

What's better than a delicious trail mix bar? One that not only satisfies your taste buds but also contributes to a healthier planet.

Enter Erin Schutt, associate manger supporting the global nuts category at General Mills.

Erin has played a key role in advancing our ingredient sourcing efforts and fostering strong supplier relationships. Her latest achievement is securing regenerative almonds for the new LÄRABAR Trail Mix Bars, where more than half the almonds in every bar are grown using regenerative farming practices.

“Our journey involved visiting almond orchards in California to ensure they aligned with our sustainability goals and then securing enough almonds to meet our volume requirements. This is General Mills’ debut with regenerative almonds. We're making a positive impact on the environment while responding to consumer demands."

Navigating this new territory wasn’t without challenges. “This is a new practice among growers and there’s still much to learn and refine. We've had to stay agile amidst uncertainties.”

If you've tried the new LÄRABAR Trail Mix bars, let us know what you think!

We recently welcomed our 2024 summer interns to our World Headquarters in Minneapolis for our National Intern Summit. Interns spent the week meeting key leaders, experiencing our campus, volunteering, networking with one another, and of course, having some fun!
 
Over the next several weeks, many of our interns will gear up to present their final project in front of their team and leaders. We can’t wait to see what great ideas they come up with!

While Pride Month may have come to a close, the incredible moments we shared as a company will stay with us forever. 🏳️‍🌈 Throughout June, employees across the U.S. participated in local Pride parades, and some of our beloved mascots, Buzz and Lucky, even made special appearances!

The celebrations culminated this past weekend in our hometown of Minneapolis, where employees proudly participated in the Twin Cities Pride Parade – one of the nation's largest!
