Green Giant Celebrates 100 Years with Heartwarming Thanksgiving Reunion

Celebrating a Century of Green Giant

This Thanksgiving season ushers in a momentous occasion for Green Giant®, the beloved canned vegetable brand, as it commemorates its 100th anniversary. The celebration is intertwined with a heartwarming story featuring Jamal Hinton and Wanda Dench, a duo who turned a mistaken text message into a friendship that inspires millions.

A Century of Green Giant

Founded in 1925 in the Minnesota River Valley, Green Giant began its journey with the mission of providing high-quality vegetables to American families. The brand’s iconic name originated from its introduction of the large, sweet "Green Giant Great Big Tender Peas." Over the last century, the company has significantly evolved, consistently leading the way in agricultural innovation, offering a diverse range of vegetable varieties and perfectly steamed canned offerings that have solidified their status as pantry staples.

As they celebrate this significant milestone, Green Giant is proud to reflect on their legacy of nourishing families with wholesome, USA-grown canned vegetables. As part of the grand celebrations, Jamal Hinton and Wanda Dench, who have celebrated Thanksgiving together for nearly a decade, are invited to mark this special occasion with Green Giant.

A Heartwarming Tradition

The connection between Jamal and Wanda began unexpectedly when Jamal received a text intended for Wanda, inviting him to her Thanksgiving dinner. Instead of brushing it off, Jamal took a leap of faith and joined her, marking the start of a remarkable relationship. Their story is one of forgiveness, understanding, and camaraderie—true representations of the holiday spirit.

“We are thrilled to celebrate our 10th Thanksgiving together, and partnering with Green Giant® makes it even more special,” shares Jamal Hinton. This statement resonates not just with the duo but with many who have witnessed their journey through various media outlets over the years. To them, this holiday is about connections and making unforgettable memories.

“It’s hard to believe it’s been a decade since that mistaken text,” adds Wanda Dench. “For us, the holidays are where we bond, make memories, and cherish the moments spent together.” The joy of their enduring relationship is sweetened by the fact that it coincides with Green Giant’s 100 years of fostering connections through good food and wholesome experiences.

Connecting Through Food
