ONIONS
the main vein of Owyhee Produce. Hot days and warm nights create the perfect growing conditions for onions. Crops here can yield three times the onions of farms elsewhere. We grow all of our own onions on about 800 acres, producing enough onions to feed over 3 million people!
 
We grow, sort, store, and pack all of our onions at our packing shed located by the Snake River in Nyssa, Oregon. We carefully monitor each step from the soil to the customer to ensure quality products from a quality company.
 
Our packaging options range from 2-10 lb consumer packs, to 25-50 lb cartons, including our in-home designed Medallion Sleevepack, a unique mesh sleeve that is easier to store and makes far less mess than the traditional onion bag.
 
Our state-of-the-art onion packing facility is located in Nyssa, Oregon, right by the banks of the Snake River. Built in 2007, our facility is one of the newest and most technologically advanced facilities in the country.
 
We pack 100% of the asparagus and onions we grow. We have over 85,000 square feet of  packing space with cooled storage for 40 million pounds of onions.”

Our Bite-Sized Story

Bender FamilyTasteful Selections® began with multi-generational potato farmers who recognized an opportunity to expand the baby potato category to meet the busy consumer’s preference for simpler, convenient meals. Today, the Tasteful Selections® brand is the leader of this unique potato category. We pioneered bite-size potatoes as a convenient source of nutrition, flavor versatility and variety for everyday meals.

Before Tasteful Selections® became a leader and pioneer in the category, bite-size potatoes played a special role in our family meals. As potato farmers from Nebraska, my father and I would pick out the small potatoes after each harvest and take them home by the bucket full. With great flavor and quick cook times, our family looked forward to having these flavorful bites to pair with our meals. My father knew that these bite-size potatoes could inspire meals for more than just our own, so he started his venture of expanding the potato category.

Pairing with growers across the country and the world, he expanded his knowledge of planting, growing and harvesting. Through this, he discovered our bite-size potatoes thrived in fields throughout the Southwest and thus we moved to California to make our bite-size dreams, a big-time reality.

BLUE Missions is a nonprofit organization working to ensure sustainable access to clean water and sanitation through service and education.

Why Water?
Today 1 in 10 people lack access to safe drinking water, but each year, more people globally face water scarcity due to pollution, deforestation, population growth, misuse, and changing climate patterns. 

Everyone has the potential to make an impact, and we believe everyone deserves the opportunity. Access to clean water is the foundation of a community. Without it, families are locked in cycles of poverty, sickness, and low education levels. Water lifts barriers and gifts people the ability to pursue their purpose. 

Education:
Through educational programs for all grade levels, we are helping the youth understand the worth of water and the urgent need to protect it. By simplifying sustainability through virtual lessons, service projects, and leadership training, REACH is cultivating a generation that will act to ensure a water-secure future.

Join us helping create water for all for more communities:

Apeel is on a mission to create a healthier and more sustainable global food system by working with nature to use the power of materials and data sciences. Apeel’s plant-based protection allows for longer-lasting produce by using materials already found in all fruits and vegetables. This protective extra “peel” slows the water loss and oxidation that causes produce to spoil, and outperforms existing technologies in maintaining freshness from farm to kitchen. Apeel’s plant-based protection is available for an ever-growing number of categories and markets, including organic and conventionally grown produce. Additionally, Apeel is integrating new data and quality tools that will allow the food system to do more with the extra time created by Apeel’s plant-based protection. Farmers can sell more of what they grow, retailers can sell more of what they source, and people can enjoy more of what they buy, creating a healthier planet and greater abundance for all.
