About us
About Braga Fresh In 1928, Sebastian and Josie Braga started farming California’s fertile soil on what is now known as the Braga Home Ranch in Soledad, CA. Today, the third generation continues the family values of sustainable-organic farming. Braga Fresh sets aside 10% of farmland to beneficial habitat and has the goal of being carbon neutral by 2025. Now vertically integrated, Braga Fresh combines innovation with tradition to grow, harvest, and process fresh vegetables and leafy greens through the Josie’s Organics and Braga Farms brands.

Congratulations to our very own Colby Pereira for receiving the Ag Woman of the Year award from the GROWER-SHIPPER FOUNDATION in her home town of Soledad, CA. As a surprise to Colby, she was surrounded by family, friends, industry peers and co-workers when the honor was presented at an Ag Against Hunger annual luncheon. Lorri Koster shared with the audience that Colby’s passion is unparalleled and her enthusiasm contagious. We couldn’t agree more!
Congratulations to Colby Pereira as our 2024 Ag Woman of the Year. Your leadership is an inspiration. Many thanks to our Board, our supporters and to our hosts at Smith Family Wines. It was a beautiful day honoring an incredible woman in agriculture!

Braga Fresh Family Farms reposted this
"Tech companies need to stop telling us what we need, and start asking us what we want,” Morgan said. “You’re not going to be successful in a market when you come to us with a solution that we don’t think we need to a problem that we don’t think we have.” This is exactly why we love working with Eric Morgan and his team at Braga Fresh Family Farms. From day 1 they provided direct feedback and have been a real partner in the development of our technology, as well as an overall approach to measurement. We wouldn't be where we are today without them. Thank you to Eric and his team for having an open mindset and showing the world what's possible. https://lnkd.in/grMZPsbg

#TeamBraga is kicking off #EarthMonth2024 by sharing our annual Regenerative Farming Progress Report. This video summarizes our third year (2023) in pilot program: Learnings, Failures and Wins! Most importantly we started to build a data set to validate and track our efforts. The Regen farming concept for fresh veg seems to be catching on and we could not be more proud. We will continue to share and collaborate with our peers, retail industry and academia to possibly make it more than just a trend. #SoilHealth #RegenerativeAgriculture #CarbonCaptureFarming https://lnkd.in/g9QjWWuF
