What a year.....
We have not updated this blog for quite some time. This is not a blog written by an intern or front office personnel, but a blog written by the owners of this company, and it is us who let this get behind. In all fairness this has been the most unpredictable, time consuming and complicated year we have faced, and a blog was literally the last thing on our mind.
With covid issues affecting every person and work place in the world, we were not spared. The issues we faced as a business were many, from a lack of a consistent workforce due to both covid and government programs paying workers to stay home, to the lack of consistent materials and supplies to keep our farms and packing operations going. Along with these issues, our export business was severly affected due to the lack of containers, ships and port shutdowns around the world.
Although covid is not gone, it is getting better. We were able to get our employees all vaccinated early on and this was the most help to get us through this past year. Our supply chain for our farms and packing also rebounded; and although we are still not where we would like to be we see the light at the end of the tunnel. The good news is that we did not lose any employees or family to the covid virus and our hearts and prayers go out to those who did lose friends and family.
We will become more diligent on this blog as we now have a little more time than we have had over these past nine months. Thank you all for your support.
Mark and Jay
