Feature Vendor
Pioneer Valley Frozen Vegetables
This past summer and fall, the Franklin County CDC has been taking in produce from local farms, then lightly processing and freezing it in our Greenfield, MA facility. We have amassed a supply of frozen chopped broccoli, chopped green bell peppers, coined carrots and diced parsnips, all of which are available for purchase. Essentially, our aim is to extend the season during which locally grown produce is available for consumption.

Our frozen produce is vacuum-packed in 5 pound bags, with 4 bags to a case. (See attached photos) We put labels on each 20 pound box that indicate the name and location of the farm that grew the vegetables as well as the processing date, which is usually within 24 hours of harvest. We also provide photographs and information about the farmers—materials for school dining services to showcase the local food system and the origin of the food they are serving.
