Other Georgia Producers -
Georgia is a top-producing state in conventional production of many items. Squashes, Eggplant, Cucumbers, Cabbage, Beans, Corn, Peanuts, Peaches, Watermelons, Vidalia Onions, and more are all top Georgia crops. Muscadines, Turnips, Collards, Apples, and even Persimmions are all grown here in Georgia, and we make every effort to ensure that if there is any way we can get you Georgia Product than that is what you will get. It is very symptomatic of a skewed food distribution network here in the states when it is easier (here in Georgia) to get product from Chile, Peru, or California than it is to get Georgia product, but unfortunately many times that is the case. We work with our suppliers throughout the year to ensure that we supply you with Georgia Grown produce whenever it is possible..
