One of the main questions we hear from potential future customers is why should I buy product from The Chef’s Garden and what sets your farm apart?

We are proud of the outstanding reputation we have developed over the past thirty years as a company renowned for its noteworthy customer service and the production of exceptional specialty and heirloom vegetables, herbs, microgreens and edible flowers grown for the world’s most esteemed and innovative chefs and restaurants who turn to us for the highest quality products available anywhere.

There are many reasons for the good reputation we have developed over the past three decades. Here are a few of the facets unique to The Chef’s Garden that we feel have shaped who we are:

The Chef and Farmer Concept®: We are genuinely proud of the deep and authentic relationships we have developed with the chefs we have worked with over the years. We are relentlessly devoted to delivering to a chef exactly what they require. We are here to serve as your personal farmer and will grow for you virtually anything that your creativity inspires. Innovation is a guiding principle at the farm and we are continuously developing new product sizes, colors, textures and flavors for you to taste that we hope will galvanize your imagination, spark a fresh idea and keep your guests marveling at the dishes you serve them in your restaurant. We are also always on the lookout for heirloom vegetables sourced the world over that are unique, extraordinary and have an enticing story to tell. Read more about our Chef and Farmer commitment.

Delivering Direct from the Farm: On a daily basis, we hand-harvest, pick-to-order and ship product to you overnight to assure that you receive the freshest, most vibrant and flavorful produce available. This is our efficiently shipped Earth to Table® promise that ensures ultimate freshness, incredible flavor and prolonged shelf-life, resulting in less waste for your business. We encourage you to compare our direct-from-the-farm products to those with a local supplier who is potentially fulfilling your order with products sourced elsewhere and stored for days in a warehouse before they are delivered to your door. We are confident that you will find our fresh vegetables, microgreens, herbs and edible flowers to be the freshest and most flavorful anywhere.

Sustainable Agricultural Practices: The Chef’s Garden has always been committed to sustainable agricultural practices and in the past thirty years we have never wavered from our commitment to farming that is environmentally friendly, socially responsible and economically viable. Serving products that are sustainably farmed by The Chef’s Garden demonstrates your commitment to the environment and to the health and well-being of future generations. Learn more about our Sustainable Farming Philosophy.
