I'd like to request the addition of three items to the end of the history section, to update the article. I have a conflict of interest so won't edit directly.

In May 2023, the company released its second product, an formula it calls “organic gentle”, designed for fussy babies.[1]

The company also operates Bobbie Labs, a research and development hub which invests in research to expand its product offerings.[2]

In July 2023, the company acquired pediatric nutrition company Nature's One, after closing a $70 million Series C funding round.[3]

Hi - Bobbie no longer manufacturers its products in Vermont. Can someone please change the information in the article? Below is the before and after text, with a source for the change.

The milk is sourced from [[Organic Valley]] milk from pasture-raised cows around the U.S. and is manufactured in [[Vermont]].

  Not done for now: Hi, do you have any sources that can verify the change? I've had a quick look online and most articles I can find say both Vermont and Ohio as manufacturing locations, although these are from last year.

I'm happy to proceed with the change when a source is provided, please ping me (type @ then my name should appear) when you reply. Thanks, Encoded Talk to me! 23:36, 22 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

I'm going to implement this request. The Modern Retail source is the most recent source, and only mentions Ohio as a manufacturing site. If any newer coverage appears that mentions Vermont, please post it here and ping me. STEMinfo (talk) 00:09, 6 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
