Our latest Grower Spotlight features Randy Bowns, an onion grower in Eastern Oregon.  Randy is a new addition to our onion program with the newly formed partnership between Central Produce Distribution, Inc. and Eagle Eye Produce.  Four second-generation and five third-generation families work together full-time to make this family farm successful, and Randy is a big part of it.  Randy grew up on the farm and remembers happy childhood memories of farming with his Dad and family.  Randy is passionate about growing a good crop and seeing his hard work pay off every season.  This coming onion season will be the biggest we have had at Eagle Eye Produce, and we are so happy to have Randy on board. 

Eagle Eye Produce is happy to continue investing in projects like the Grower Spotlight series as we strive to shine a spotlight on the dedicated people behind our food and brands.  There are more Grower Spotlight videos to come this season as we prep for onion and potato harvest, and we hope that this series will continue to bring value to our customers and the industry.
