BBI Produce Inc.
BBI Produce was founded in 1990 and grows the freshest berries and melons in Florida and Georgia! They are family owned and operated by two families, the Brown’s and the Young’s. In 1986, Ronnie Young and Marvin Brown purchased an 85-acre plot of land in Dover, Florida and began growing strawberries. After realizing their passion and success, they added additional acreage in both Florida and Georgia. This expansion led them to where they are now and can pack, ship and grow strawberries, blackberries, watermelons and Athena melons to share with the great state of Florida and Georgia.
Jim Rash, Inc.
Since their founding in 1983, Jim Rash has been delivering the freshest watermelons direct from their farms to our stores! Jim Rash goes above what’s expected because that’s just what makes sense. Their dedication to honesty and integrity guide them through extensive reviews, training and testing processes to ensure the best practice for all of their delicious produce. From the time their watermelons are planted, until the time they’re packed and shipped, you can be sure that the team at Jim Rash is growing juicy, nutritious watermelons. Growing watermelons isn’t just what they do, it’s who they are!
Lewis Taylor Farms
Lewis Taylor Farms was a small, family-owned farm run by Lewis Taylor in 1945. After his sudden passing, William Mcallister and Edwin Walker bought the farm from the family in 1964 but kept the original namesake to continue his high-quality, farm-fresh produce legacy. Today, it’s a 5,600-acre farm with two packing facilities and 81 greenhouses proudly bringing the local Georgia community delicious greens, broccoli, melons and more!
