Growing Our Global Reach

In 1999, Farm Fresh Direct was founded in Monta Vista, Colorado. With a shared passion for feeding people, our founders consolidated 20+ small family potato farms in Colorado’s fertile San Luis Valley to produce a consistent supply of fresh potatoes to wholesalers and retailers of all sizes across the country, including Canada and Mexico. Farm Fresh Direct represents nearly 25% of the production in Colorado’s principal potato growing area and has additional key growing areas across the west, including northern California and Washington.  LEARN MORE

Growing Solutions

BEST FREIGHT RATES: Farm Fresh Direct is geographically diverse in both sheds and farms. This allows us to offer the best freight rates from multiple points.

SUPPLY CHAIN SECURITY: As a grower-owned company, we can better guarantee retailers and wholesales of all sizes a consistent 365-day supply of produce.

EXPANSIVE LOGISTIC NETWORK: As a grower and shipper, we recognize the need for stability in our transportation needs. Our long-time partnership with asset-based carrier, RE Garrison, positions our customers with access to over 1000 owned trucks and thousands more network trucks. Reliability is everything and priced at reasonable rates is mandatory. Our product is no good to our customers if it’s sitting at our dock. Together, we work to ensure you “on-time delivery” and “in-full service.”

TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS: From updating our storage which will help extend our crop season to printing dynamic information on Kwik-Loks and enhancing cyber security to keep vendor information safe, Farm Fresh Direct is always looking for ways to better serve our customers.

Growing Product Line

At Farm Fresh Direct, our dedication to grow fresh, healthy, delicious food that answers the call of consumer demands has always been evident. Working feverishly with our partners and member growers across the country, our number one goal is to continually supply innovative premium produce year-round to a fast-changing retail, foodservice, and consumer environment.

Our "Farm to Shelf" approach makes sure everyday consumers have easy access to family farmed fresh produce year round and from any outlet.

Have we got a story to tell

Growing Love For Our Workers

La Pasadera, which translates to “stepping stone,” is a Farm Fresh Direct program that was designed to provide extra support for our shed and farm employees, their dependents, and our community. From providing educational scholarships and emergency assistance to vision care and Christmas parties, we simply want to give back to those who work so hard to make us a success. LEARN MORE
