AAFCO: Open Farm® Kind Earth™ Plant Recipe is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for maintenance (per manufacturer). Whole Grain Barley is the first ingredient.

This dry kibble recipe carries no named animal protein; the ingredient panel opens with whole grain barley, followed by fava beans, oats, dried yeast and sweet potatoes. Open Farm markets the line as Kind Earth and states the recipe is formulated to meet AAFCO nutrient profiles for maintenance, listing it as suitable for adult and senior dogs. Because the first ingredients are all plant based, the guaranteed protein minimum sits lower than the brand's meat first formulas even on a dry matter basis. The manufacturer sells the recipe in 3.5 and 20 pound bags. Potato protein, coconut oil and sunflower oil round out the early ingredient list ahead of the vitamin and mineral supplement block, which the maker formulates to cover the amino acids a meat based diet would otherwise supply. Dogs who lose interest in a rotation often take it again with a single ingredient freeze dried topper crumbled over the top. Sniff and Shift makes single ingredient freeze dried treats, which are treats rather than meals, and they pair with any complete diet on this list.
