Founding Story
Launched in 2020, Moonshot was born from a vision for a better world. According to the UN, approximately 34% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from food systems and land use - that's more than a third. More alarming, scientists believe that, if we do nothing to change how we produce our food, we will have less than 60 years of topsoil, the life force of our food, left. Seeing the sizeable role food plays in climate change, as well as the industry’s powerful potential to be a part of the solution, Julia Collins’, a serial founder and experienced restauranteur, set out to build the world’s first climate-friendly snack brand. Inspired to create a better world for her young sons, Julia is on a mission to create an entirely new category of climate-friendly food and catalyze consumers to join the Climatarian movement.

Her early career was spent growing industry-leading food companies such as Union Square Hospitality Group, Mexicue, Murray’s Cheese and Harlem Jazz Enterprises. She went on to co-found Zume Pizza where she became the first Black woman to reach unicorn status.
Inspired by the birth of her first son to tackle the climate crisis, Julia founded Planet FWD in 2019. Starting with Moonshot, the first climate-friendly snack brand, Julia's work centers around making food a part of the climate solution.

Testimonials
I look forward to my Moonshots every month. This tasty crackers goes with everything or eaten alone. I intend to sacrifice a box with friends to spread the word.
These crackers have the perfect amount of flavor, where it’s not overpowering but still enough to make those taste buds dance. Regenerative organic farming and carbon neutral on top of that? Yeah that’s good. Looking forward to see Moonshot grow.
We absolutely love our Moonshot crackers- with cheese, dips or alone! It also feels really great (and necessary) to support a company that thinks about both the planet and people in their work. THANK YOU. This is (we hope) the future of the food industry- delicious, nutritious and ethical.
The best new find I can’t tell you how much I love these crackers. Especially the Margherita! Not only are they so tasty but I love what they stand for …. Plus who doesn’t love supporting a new female-founded company! 5 STARS!
No Cracker Compares Review by Alia S. on 22 Aug 2022review stating No Cracker ComparesI am so happy to have found my new favorite crackers! I prefer the sourdough because it's so tasty and versatile. If I could change anything, it'd be improve the packaging or texture of the cracker so not as many break in transit. I cannot wait for more flavors in the future.
