why choose spork?

quality

We vet all of our food partners and allow in only the highest quality producers using regenerative, sustainable farming practices.

compliance

We go beyond good agricultural practices (GAP) and source only from California family farms. With faster than industry standard lead-times, we ensure food safety, traceability and exceed institutional guidelines.

fulfillment

Serving customers in Northern California ensures our fulfillment and delivery happens after orders are placed. Turnaround is short with reliability and accuracy assured.

increased awareness through education

Our educational offerings work to deepen connections between locally grown produce and those who receive it. We know this has a positive and direct impact on the effectiveness of our work — increasing local procurement in the regions we serve.

education for kids

We accomplish this through on-farm field trips, lunchtime taste tests, and it culminates in forward planning with our school districts and their farmer partners. This work deepens the connection between the kids and the people who are growing their food.

education for staff

Spork Food Hub offers on-farm tours, tasting events at our Farmstand Showcase (every Wednesday 2-7) as well as on-site training on how to make the most of our seasonal produce exclusively for nutrition services staff and teams.
