Food Safety Down to the last spud!

Food Safety isn't a chore, it's a mindset. We employ continuous and multiple safeguards throughout our facilities to safeguard our products effectively and implement best practices to accomplish this. Our Director of Food Safety continually conducts audits of practices and procedures throughout the day in all aspects of production. From planting to production all of our employees undergo extensive food safety training and practice GAP fundamentals on hygiene and sanitation.

We are GAP certified as a packing facility as well as for storage and transportation. Our facility maintains a superior certificate with PRIMUS Labs for our packinghouse. Through our HACCP program all of our products are source coded by date so they can be traced back to the field.

We use the latest methods to maintain the best product traceability in the industry. We are committed to being a leader in the industry in this aspect of our business.
