Throwing it back to January 2022 with a special episode that originally aired as EP197. This show stars my friend Brian Antle as he tells the story of his family\\u2019s farming legacy. Tanimura & Antle is famous for their premium quality produce: fresh lettuces, broccoli, cauliflower, onions, and more.\\xa0

lt was the first farm I ever visited in Salinas Valley - Brian and members of the Tanimura family personally toured me through their operation and to date, it\\u2019s one of the most memorable experiences of my entire life. I\\u2019ve also visited their farms in Yuma, Arizona and we work with this company as a brand partner of The Produce Moms.

I honestly thought I knew most of the incredible brand\\u2019s family farming story and legacy.

When I was interviewing Brian for this episode, I learned about the way these families came together in WWII - the Antle Family watched over the Tanimura Family\\u2019s land when members of the Tanimura family were placed in Japanese internment camps, and two of the brothers fought in the war.

\\xa0

What started as a relationship between two families with a love for produce and farming has grown into a global company with 30,000 acres of farmland on the west coast and 7,000 annual employees.

\\xa0

When I think about what separates The Produce Moms from all the other resources and creators out there - it\\u2019s our connection to the farms.\\xa0

Enjoy this Greatest Hit: Brian Antle and the American Family Farming story of Tanimura & Antle.
