Don is particularly passionate about growing black garlic. He finds great joy in growing this
unique vegetable due to its numerous health benefits. Black garlic is known for its powerful
antioxidants, which help fight off free radicals in the body and support overall well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On his farm in Culpepper, Va., Don grows black garlic, garlic scapes, and cherry tomatoes.
The 4P Foods Procurement Team and our customers were impressed by the consistent
quality and freshness of his mixed cherry tomatoes. The summer of 2024 was the hottest on
record, which, for many growers, had a negative impact on the general quality of tomatoes
across the board. However, despite the high temperatures, we were able to count on Farmer D\u2019s tomatoes to deliver on quality.
