Our Mid America Coordinator visited Ole Tyme Produce and met with their newest LF partner, Clearwater Organic Farms. Their seeder machine is how they seed all of their plants. They put peat moss in a styrofoam bed & run it under the seeder machine which seeds the beds!
Can't BEET a farm visit! We had a great time visiting with local farm, Faurot Ranch, yesterday. Located in Watsonville, CA, they specialize in baby veg and greens! Thank you for having us and to Arturo for taking us on a tour & giving us gorgeous beets. https://t.co/J38lgTSsEs

Our West Regional Coordinator visited @azmicrogreens yesterday to check out how they are gearing back up for a new season, as they take a break during the heat of the summer. Soon all of their growing tables will be filled with nutrient dense microgreens! Thanks for having us!
Proud to work with National Farm Partners like @DelMonteFresh who are taking strides to be more sustainable. Excited to see this new addition up & running!
We're building a wind turbine in Gonzales, CA that will generate up to 4,900 MWh of energy a year for our new Del Monte Fresh/Mann Packing facility. Not sure how much electricity that is? One MWh is equivalent to the same amount of electricity that 330 homes use in one hour!
We are proud to welcome Van Groningen & Sons as the newest Greener Fields Together local farm partner. Van Groningen's has been in operation since 1922 and has long standing relationships with many PRO*ACT distributors including @generalproduce! @YosemiteFresh
