About Us

8-Generations of Excellence

About Our Company

We are an eighth-generation family-owned faming company located in the beautiful Pennsylvania Dutch Hegins and Lykens Valleys. The rolling hills and red shale soil of these valleys provide a unique, well-drained farmland composition that contributes to the unique taste and texture of the high-quality potatoes grown on our farms.

Years of potato farming experience are combined with today’s newest technology to deliver top-quality products at the best value through integrated state-of-the-art operations and sustainable agricultural and supply chain practices. We are also a partner-owner in Fresh Solution Farms, LLC: a state-of-the-art growing, storage, packing, and shipping facility that allows us to deliver products nationwide.

Delivering excellence

for 8 generations.

Employee Health and Wellness

To help relieve physical stress, we increased automation to reduce redundant manual work.
For example, we have seven automatic balers and robotic palletizers integrated at our farm to reduce the strain on our workers.

In addition, our employees are offered complimentary vaccine clinics, nutritious foods in break room vending machines and ergonomic office furniture.
