Green Giant® works hard to make it easy for you
to be good to yourself.
Have you ever wondered what goes into getting sweet corn from the fields into your freezer? At Green Giant®, we take pride in the process that allows you to have field-fresh vegetables on your table throughout the year.
Our farming experts use decades of experience and research to ensure we harvest the best vegetables at the best time, lock in their goodness, and get them to you as quickly as possible.
Most of our corn is packed out of Minnesota, with the remainder being packed out of the Pacific Northwest. We have developed our own sweet corn hybrid seed. This seed is unique to us, and we believe it grows into the best sweet corn for you. We plant our seeds in May and June, and our growing season takes place between May and August.
Once our sweet corn reaches
its peak ripeness, it is simply:
We trace our roots to Minnesota and the start of the Minnesota Value Canning Company, which incorporated in 1903.
Though we still grow and package our vegetables in Minnesota (and many other states!), we’re now headquartered in New Jersey, “the Garden State.”
