True Leaf Farms
Church Brothers Produce is in
partnership with True Leaf Farms, a processing entity currently
producing a variety of spring mixes, spinaches and whole leaf singles
of Romaine, Green Leaf and Red Leaf. True Leaf Farms operates
seasonally in King City, California and Yuma, Arizona. From a food
safety standpoint we operate under strict HACCP guidelines and are
monitored by and inspected routinely by various well recognized
industry approved agencies such as Primuslabs, AIB Labs and Silliker
Labs.
The tender nature of Spring Mix and Spinach
components leads us to a harvest that is in close proximity to our
processing plants. Fields are vacuumed cleaned prior to harvesting to
ensure best quality. We harvest using the most modern machines,
designed to deliver tender lettuces at the peak of their quality.
Nighttime harvest is the rule of thumb for same day assembly, resulting
in a maximization of shelf life quality. After blending, washing and
drying in our gentle and efficient systems, we package using modern
form, fill and seal machines, along with packaging materials tailored
for the long life and beauty of the product. A wide variety of mixes
and blends are available to best satisfy the desires of discriminating
chefs.
Green Leaf, Romaine and Red
Leaf lettuces are grown specifically for these whole leaf single
products with seed varieties designed for uniform leaf size and picture
perfect presentation. We then carefully trim undesired stem material
and segregate the leaves into single, heart leaf and Cascade leaf
sizes. After washing and drying we hand select only the best leaves and
package them into their respective packaging. As directed by the
customer, we are capable of sealing and modifying the atmosphere in the
bag to minimize undesired oxidation of the leaves. Care and attention
to our process affords customers optimal yield and ease of preparation.
We, too, plan on earning and keeping your trust.
