Star Route Farms began on five acres using horse-drawn sulky plows and cultivators and a lot of long haired ambition. As pioneers in the then fledgling organic industry Star Route Farms adopted production and post-harvest technologies–such as precision planters and hydrocooling equipment–in order to insure top quality produce for the consumer. Star Route Farms is the oldest continuously certified organic grower in California. Founded by Warren Weber and purchased by the University of San Francisco in August 2017, the farm is presently certified by Marin Organic Certified Agriculture (MOCA).
