Sustainability at Grimmway

Learn about the innovative techniques that help us conserve natural resources.

Energy

Our 4.75-megawatt solar farm helps power our facilities and we regularly partner with PG&E to participate in large-scale efficiency incentive programs.

Recycling & Reuse

We utilize pooled pallets to reduce waste throughout the supply chain and we are a member of the How2Recycle® label program.

Farming Practices

Cover crops, crop rotation and composting keep our soil fertile and productive. The natural controls we use to cultivate and protect our crops help maintain a healthy ecosystem in the field.

Water

We use drip irrigation, pivot systems and pressure-sealed Certa-Set® pipes to minimize the use of water and we store our water strategically to balance seasons of excess with periods of drought.
