Stewardship
Growing for Generations
At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to stewardship. For us, it’s not just a guiding principle—it’s a responsibility we honor every day. It’s a commitment to nurturing the earth, supporting our farmers, and enriching communities for generations to come.
Our stewardship practices shape our approach to farming, food, and the people we serve. Together, we grow with care—because every harvest is more than just fruit; it’s a promise to the future.
Our impact
Organic Acres
For over 25 years, we’ve grown, packed, and shipped premium organic fruit from farms in California and Oregon. Our year-round programs bring you the best in citrus, berries, stonefruit, fall fruit, and grapes—fresh from our fields to your table.
Regenerative Organic Growers
Regenerative organic farming strengthens soil health through minimal tillage and diverse cover crops, enhancing biodiversity and organic matter. Our entire stonefruit program is proudly Regenerative Organic Certified®, ensuring every fruit is grown with care for the land and future generations.
Back to Farmworkers
The premium from our EFI-certified commodities and programs goes directly back to farmworkers as a bonus. For example, workers have used these funds to support their families, invest in education, and improve their communities—making a real difference in their lives.
Meals to the Community
Our employee volunteer group, Cultivating Care, is dedicated to giving back through year-round programs that support our local communities. From providing meals and donations to offering services where they’re needed most, we’re committed to making a meaningful impact.
Our journey began with pioneering citrus growers who transitioned their family farm to organic in 1989, laying the foundation for a legacy of stewardship farming. Today, we proudly partner with over 100 organic growers, cultivating more than 8,000 acres of fresh, organic fruit. From peaches, nectarines, and plums to blueberries, fall fruits, citrus, and grapes, every piece of fruit is grown with care.

Reducing Waste, Nourishing Communities
Our Harvest Rescue program celebrates the uniqueness of each harvest—reducing food waste, supporting farmers, and making organic fruit more accessible. By rescuing fruit that doesn’t meet traditional cosmetic standards but is just as fresh and flavorful, we’re honoring the hard work of our growers while ensuring more people can enjoy high-quality produce.
Food waste is one of the biggest challenges in agriculture, but through Harvest Rescue, we’re creating a more sustainable food system—one where every piece of fruit has value. It’s our way of growing with care, for today and for generations to come.
