WE FOLLOW THE SUN.

That’s how we know our products are always in season. Our watercress, arugula, and spinach farming operations span eight states, allowing us to grow where they are, always in season and at their peak of freshness and flavor. This also lets our farms recharge naturally in a seasonal rotation. In addition, we utilize sophisticated water regeneration and recirculation systems that limit runoff to save our valuable water resources. This “Smart Farming” initiative yields healthy products grown sustainably and naturally.

Our Farms

At B&W, we take being the best in leafy greens seriously, providing 100% natural products on a year-round basis.

We’ve been around for over 150 years, and over that time, we’ve developed some of the most sophisticated farms and unique techniques for growing the best greens in the world.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

B&W Quality Growers embodies the truest testament to the sustainability of all…the test of time. Caring for the land and the people we depend on is at the heart of our daily work.

Environmental Stewardship

The quality of our leafy greens starts with rich soil and clean, cold water. Our farm rotation program allows each field to rejuvenate naturally during its “off-season.”

Our smart farming techniques have reduced chemical usage by over 50% in the past 10 years! We utilize sophisticated water recirculation systems that help replenish the water table and save our valuable water resources, and 100% of all the water used in our Florida farms is recirculated, saving millions of gallons annually. Nearly 100% of our packaging is recyclable, and both our retail and foodservice bags are made from the same film, Oriented Polypropylene (OPP). OPP is a chasing arrow recycle code #5. B&W Quality Growers also focuses on resource reduction with our bag film using 80% less material weight than a PET tub, lowering our carbon footprint. In addition, our wash water is treated with PAA (peroxy acetic acid), which breaks down into CO2 and Water.

All of this is better for the environment and results in healthier plants, just like Mother Nature intended.

Employee & Community Engagement

At B&W, we have a highly skilled and well-trained group of employees. To ensure 100% legal compliance, we use the DHS’s “E-verify” system and utilize the H2-A program for other skilled positions. Our enthusiastic employees thrive in our values-based, performance-driven culture and are passionate about being the best in baby greens.
