Since 1887

WE CONTROL IT FROM THE SEED TO THE SEAL

Our Seed, Our Growers

We have been testing seed varieties since the 1800s and we control the entire growing process, alongside growers we have worked with for generations.

Packed Beside The Fields

Our plants sit close to the crops they run, so maximum freshness is retained instead of lost in transit.

Full Traceability

Because we own the process end to end rather than buying on the open market, every case traces back to where it was grown.

Quality & Food Safety

CERTIFIED AT THE HIGHEST LEVELS AVAILABLE.

How every case is held to standard
Every Lakeside facility is certified SQF Level 3, the highest level of food safety available, against both the SQF Quality Code and the SQF Food Safety Code for Manufacturing. We hold BRC Global Standards certification, participate in advancing the Food Safety Modernization Act, and work with the University of Wisconsin on quality standards that exceed USDA requirements.
