eTown Announces New partnership with Galaxy Foods
(Boulder, CO) - eTown, the nationally syndicated radio program that is celebrating 20 years on radio this year, announces a new partnership with Rhode Island based Galaxy Nutritional Foods.
Galaxy Nutritional Foods, America’s leading producer of cheese alternatives, is just launching its much-anticipated new line of delicious non-dairy vegan cream cheeses nationwide. This great tasting line is available in Classic Plain and Chive and Garlic under the Galaxy Nutritional Foods Veggie and Vegan brands. Both lines are vegan, gluten free, and certified kosher at most major supermarkets and natural food stores in the U.S.
“We don’t often have an opportunity to welcome a new sponsor to eTown since so many of our partners stay with us year after year. I’m so glad this worked out, and, since Helen is allergic to dairy, we feel a particular connection to Galaxy Foods,” says eTown Host and Founder, Nick Forster.
Rick Antonelli, Galaxy Nutritional Foods CEO, had an opportunity to meet Nick last fall when Nick was on tour with his bluegrass band, Hot Rize. “I came to Nick’s show with Hot Rize, we got together afterwards and we basically knew that we were going to work together. eTown, for 20 years, has been all about integrity in media and entertainment. We have a similar commitment to doing the right thing, creating products that are healthy and delicious using ingredients that are responsibly sourced.”
Both eTown and Galaxy are looking forward to finding ways to work together beyond the radio shows. Already, they’re talking about a road show in Lowell, Massachusetts and cooking up something special for eTown’s annual “Green Rocks” show at Red Rocks Amphitheater this summer.
As a new national sponsor, Galaxy Nutritional Foods is joining a distinguished group eTown sponsors including Celestial Seasonings, Rudi’s Organic, Silk, and New Belgium Brewery.
