A 100-Year Mission

To build community through agriculture.

RESILIENCE

Farming isn’t for the faint-hearted. It takes grit, determination and flexibility, to be able to grow food.
We bring this determination into everything we do in our business.

RELIABILITY

Our network is built on the ebbs, flows and whims of commoditized agriculture markets. Our deep, long-lasting partnerships with like-minded farmers and processors enables a consistent, predictable supply chain.

PASSION

Our curiosity and love for what we do has earned us recognition as thought leaders in our industry. Our team believes in regenerative agriculture, and is excited to share what we’ve learned and blaze new trails.

RELATIONSHIPS

Our model is built on respect and equity for all our stakeholders – from farmers raising livestock to the family preparing meals. Operating with ethical practices and transparency, earns trust and builds community.
