"It`s funny to think about now, but there was a time when everyone knew exactly where their food came from. They knew the farmers by name, the land where they worked, and how their produce was grown. Nowadays, we shop blindly for the most essential resource in life: food. Let`s change that. When you shop at FarmBox, you know exactly who grows your food. You know where and how it was grown. You`ll feel safe knowing that your apple wasn`t processed in a factory by an anonymous source. It`s time to go back to the way things were. While working on a farm, Reisha experienced firsthand how difficult it is for a small-scale farmer to sell their harvest. As a nutritionist, she also saw an incredible lack of local and organic produce available to her clientele. Her dream was to find a solution to both problems and create a level of trust and convenience to bridge the gap between farmers and families. This was the spark that soon became FarmBox. Though it began with a structure similar to a more traditional CSA, FarmBox has now grown into an online grocery store working with over 100 partner farmers and artisans. All the produce is picked to order when it`s ripe and bursting with flavor. There`s nothing better than eating food that tastes the way it`s supposed to!"

Raising animals humanely isn`t a new concept at Foster Farms. It`s been a part of our values since 1939. And it`s a value we share with you. That`s why we are proud to be certified by the American Humane Association – one of the nation`s leading animal welfare organizations that has been at the forefront in protecting farm animals since 1877. For more than 135 years, the American Humane Association has been dedicated to the idea that all animals, including those raised on farms and ranches, are entitled to humane treatment. The American Humane® Certified program provides third-party, independent verification that a certified producer`s care and handling of farm animals meet the ethical, science-based standards established by the American Humane Association. Certification doesn`t happen in a day. The audit is comprehensive, covering 200 separate items including diet, living conditions and natural behaviors. To achieve certification, Foster Farms verified that humane conditions are maintained on our farms and ranches 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
