About the Company

We have been committed to providing our customers with fresh and flavorful organic produce since 1978. Our passion for organic produce has helped us become the largest wholesaler of organic fruits, vegetables and herbs in the Pacific Northwest. Not only are we committed to organic produce, we are also committed to becoming ever more sustainable in our business practices, and we encourage similar methods throughout the trade. Organically Grown was founded by farmers. We have built on those relationships by expanding our grower network to ensure we have access to the best produce available. Because we work within a small trade system, we are able to purchase over 90% of our products directly from growers. We team up with natural and fine food retailers, supermarket chains, restaurants, home delivery enterprises and processors who provide the final link in bringing our produce to customers thereby ensuring that Northwest communities reap the benefits of fresh organic fruits and vegetables. Organic food is produced naturally, without using conventional pesticides, petroleum-based fertilizers, or chemical processes. It's healthy for consumers and healthier for the growers in the fields. In a nutshell, organic food promotes healthy communities and a healthy environment.
