Spotlight Grower: Underwood Ranches is a family owned farm that goes back to the 1860’s. For the past 30 years, Chief Operating Officer Jim Roberts (left) has helped the Underwood Family with daily management of all aspects of the farming operation. Even though it is challenging, Jim loves agriculture. The challenge of trying to organize the chaos that mother nature throws at him and still having a successful harvest is what brings him back every day. Learn more on our “Meet Our Growers” page.

What is IQF?
IQF (Individual Quick-Freezing) is a lightning-fast freezing method that prevents large ice crystals from forming on your herbs and vegetables, securing the integrity and nutritional quality of our products. Each piece is individually frozen, so the particles do not clump together, which helps to avoid a frozen solid block as the final product.
What makes IQF better than fresh?
It all comes down to consistency and flavor. Using IQF products ensures 100% yield, flavor consistency, cut size, year-round availability, pricing, and labor savings. Fresh herbs lose nutritional value after 48 hours, and this often occurs during travel to market. IQF locks in nutritional value and flavor during freezing, ensuring a long shelf life.
How do SupHerb Farms products get from field to factory?
Our process is simple. Harvested at peak ripeness, our herbs and vegetables are transported to our plant where they are offloaded, cleaned, washed, frozen, and packaged for nationwide distribution (with only the choice parts of the herbs and vegetables making their way into the package). This all occurs within hours of harvest, ensuring peak freshness and year-round availability for our herbs and specialty vegetables.
What is the shelf life of your products?
SupHerb Farms products have a minimum of 2 years frozen shelf life, depending on the product. Refrigerated shelf life (pastes/purées only) can be viewed on individual product data sheets.
Do your products need to be shipped frozen?
Yes, our products require frozen transportation.
How do I order your products?
For foodservice, we use Dot Foods to distribute throughout the US and Canada. If you use another distributor, we can still serve you. Please contact us to place an order or request a sample.
