It
all began in 1882 when Carl Fagerberg arrived on the eastern slope of
Colorado from his home near Stockholm, Sweden. Homesteading in the
shadow of the Rocky Mountains, Carl became a prominent member of the
Weld County farming community. His son, grandson and now
great-grandson have continued this commitment to agriculture. Since
1948, the name Fagerberg has been associated with the production of
quality onions.
It
is our belief at Fagerberg Produce that the needs of the farmer and
consumer can be served successfully at the same time by adhering to
the following basic principles. One, a desire to provide the consumer
with the highest quality, most diversely packaged product technology
currently affords within our industry. And two, a desire to provide
our growers with the best production support and prices possible to
help them continue to be successful as independent family farmers. We
feel that this sincere commitment to both sides has led to our
success within this very competitive industry.
Our challenge for the future is to continue providing premier quality and service to our receivers through all means available to us. Buying a bag with Fagerberg Produce on the label promises a product that has been grown using the best methods available, and marketed and delivered to the receiver in the most efficient manner possible.
