California agriculture is diversity. It’s technology. It’s deep roots. It’s a world leader. But above all, it’s a community.

The people who make up that community and who call California agriculture home fuel everything we do at Grow West. That ranges from providing personal service and targeted crop protection products to our customers, to supporting the communities we all call home and the countryside in between.

We can’t do all of that without moving forward and innovating in ways that grow and evolve our capabilities as a trusted adviser to thousands of growers in Northern California. That’s why we work hard every day to honor the independent service focus that is fundamental to the roots of Grow West, while staying on the cutting edge of agriculture technology to ensure our customers have the best of both worlds: local expertise, service, and experience; and the drive to make sure we apply it in ways that futureproof our customers’ operations.

Recent hurdles like weather extremes and volatile markets sometimes make that a challenge. But we’re dedicated to putting in the work to continue our evolution as the preferred grower partner. It’s not the first time we’ve all faced similar challenges together, and it won’t be the last. Rest assured that no matter which direction the roller coaster of California agriculture is headed, Grow West will be here.

Our grower partners are moving California agriculture forward into the next generation, and we take seriously our role as your partner in producing bountiful, quality crops and sustaining businesses that will support your families and communities for generations to come. Knowledge, connection, innovation, and community are the four pillars of how we work at Grow West, and we will continue to prioritize those pillars in maintaining the right portfolio of products and services, technical expertise and local presence that is important to your families and ours. We’re not just here to provide agronomic and crop protection products and service; we’re your partner and are invested in your success. It’s part of the Grow West DNA and will always be.

We’re committed to doing everything we can to support the people, crops and communities that make ours the most diverse, fruitful landscape on earth. Whether you’re a grower or part of the Grow West team, you can count on us to be here for you, your family and your community. Because for us, that’s what it’s all about. We’ll keep rolling up our sleeves, going to work and providing the support solutions you and your operations need. It’s about growing together. Whether in the field or orchard, or at a community event, we’re here because of people. We’ll continue to be here for the same reason.

We wish everyone in the Grow West family — growers, employees, and their families — the best as we kick off 2022. Let’s get some dirt on our boots and get the job done together.

Best,
Lucas Schmidt
Vice President + COO
