3 Cricketeers is a family-owned Minnesota maker creating innovative, sustainable foods from locally raised crickets. Founded by Chad and Claire Simons, the company grew from a family experiment after their son brought home a cricket cookie. Their passion for environmental sustainability and nutrition inspired them to build an urban cricket farm and licensed commercial kitchen in Minneapolis. Today, 3 Cricketeers breeds, raises, and harvests its own crickets, turning them into protein powder, roasted snacks, savory mixes, chocolate treats, and gluten-free baking mixes. The company focuses on farm-to-fork production, small-batch craftsmanship, and sustainable protein while working with local partners and Minnesota agricultural organizations.
