Farm-fresh Produce
Sprouts Farmers Market is proud to work with local farmers across the country to bring you and your family the freshest produce around! Bringing local produce to your store means it spends less time in storage and transit–keeping it as fresh as possible! We strive to choose farms that promote healthy, clean farming practices in South Carolina!
City Roots Farm
Family-owned and founded by father and son duo, Eric and Robbie McClam in 2009, City Roots Farm set out to be the first urban farm in South Carolina. They strive to be an energy and carbon-neutral farm and use zero fossil fuels in their greenhouses and farms. By sourcing their power and onsite heat from solar panels and geothermal heating and cooling, they can grow fresh microgreens and organic vegetables in greenhouses to give you the same fresh flavor and nutrition all year round!
Cotton Hope Farms
Peaches are the taste of summer and at Sprouts, we’re proud to source them from our trusted partner, Cotton Hope Farms. For over 100 years, the DuBose family has owned and operated Cotton Hope Farms, bringing fresh, off-the-orchard peaches from tree to table. Cotton Hope Farms sits on the ridge of Monetta, South Carolina where the peaches are known for growing sweeter. Not only do the sloping lands provide ample amounts of water, but the sandy soils and Piedmont clay of the Coastal Plains create the best fertility for sweet, juicy peaches. The DuBose family and Cotton Hope Farms prides itself on delivering high-quality peaches straight from their backyard to yours!
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 guides them through extensive reviews, trainings 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!
Mcleod Farms
Family-owned and operated for over 100 years, Mcleod Farms is proud to bring South Carolina grown peaches to you and your family, each season! During the peak harvesting months of late May through August, peaches are picked and hand-graded every day. McLeod Farms uses a variety of modern farming practices like drip irrigation and wind machines to help bring warmer temperatures down to the crops on the colder days. While peaches are their specialty, this local farm also grows berries, potatoes, cabbage, sweet corn, onions, peppers and other tasty produce.
