What we bring

Built to deliver on contract.

The infrastructure, sourcing relationships, and reporting discipline that government food programs require — under one roof in Auburn, WA.

Cold-chain capacity

A 30,500 sq ft warehouse with 20,000 sq ft of refrigerated space and our own fleet of refrigerated box trucks.

Assembly at scale

A food-box production line that assembled up to 48,000 boxes a week at the height of our USDA pandemic response.

Culturally relevant sourcing

Box contents tailored to the communities served — with support for local and BIPOC-owned farms written into contracts.

WA-sourced, simple reporting

Categorized by the WSDA as a food producer — what you buy from us is Washington-sourced, which makes grant reporting easier.

Statewide logistics

Sourcing, storage, assembly, and delivery coordinated across Washington with a trusted network of production partners.

Grant writing & technical assistance

We help farms and non-profit partners build capacity and write grants, with a success rate over 90%.

Programs & agencies

Trusted with public food dollars.

A track record of executing complex food contracts — accurately, on time, and with the cultural relevance and farm support that make programs work better.
