Geography/History
Locally grown at San Diego, California, Sun Grown Organic Distributors, Inc. is committed to food safety. Providing top quality products year round since 1984, CEO Robin Taylor diligently maintains his company's consistent and superior high standards for cleaning and packaging spring-fresh sprouts. A market leader in the community, Specialty Produce enthusiastically endorses and proudly promotes our local growers, farmers, ranchers and the valuable California farming industry. Starting as seeds, sprouting occurs when the seeds are soaked in water and then drained. Stored nutrients begin to grow from the moisture in the wet seeds producing tasty sprouts. The nutritional value of the onion seeds is increased when they sprout, converting starches to sugars.
