Wegmans to sell 7 locally made Salute Seasonings

Seven new spice blends made and packaged in Rochester will be sold in area Wegmans stores starting Saturday, Nov. 1.

Wegmans will sell Salute Seasonings’ ground cinnamon, cloves and ginger; cinnamon maple; pumpkin pie spice; and poultry seasoning.

Unistel, a division of CDS Monarch, has sold Salute Seasonings to all five branches of the military for more than 20 years. Veterans and people with intellectual or developmental disabilities produce the seasonings. Sales benefit a therapy and rehabilitation program for veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder, brain injuries or sexual trauma.

“We toured the facility and were very impressed with the people and the product,” Linda Lovejoy, Wegmans manager of community relations, said in a news release.
