Family Owned From the Start
As a family-founded business, Global Harvest Foods is guided today by the very same values we began with over 40 years ago. That’s because from day one, we’ve been in it together. Working alongside of our family inspires us to always do the right thing — what’s best for the ones we care about.
Nurturing the wellbeing of animals, people, and their environments is our core vision. We are committed to helping people connect to nature in their own backyards with nutritious wild bird and wildlife food that supports the health of our feathered and furry friends and in return enhances our own wellbeing.
Our facilities are strategically located in farming regions across the US, so we can get fresh ingredients from local farmers and supply retailers with premium products to sell in their stores. When you choose Global Harvest Foods, you help provide a better future for backyard wildlife.
“Global Harvest Foods continues to grow on all fronts, developing better bird feeders, acquiring bird food producers and retailers, and bringing more grain farmers on board.”
