100% Organic Pork Now on the Menu at Project Open Hand
Martin McReynolds, Food Operations Manager, Project Open Hand Categories:

Starting this month, all of the pork products Project Open Hand uses in our meals will be 100% organic, no-antibiotics-ever and hormone-free.

Our partners over at Bassian Farms have been absolutely astonishing in their pursuit of partners who operate more sustainable and humane farms, resulting in a more wholesome protein for their clients – including Project Open Hand. Most of Bassian Farms’ clients are mid- to high-end restaurants around the Bay Area, so it is in their best business interest to have these organic products available as the demand for these products is high and continues to increase.

We are Bassian Farms’ most unique client because we do not sell our product for profit. They are a true partner with Project Open Hand because they understand the impact of the work we do and the people who benefit from better-quality food items. All the while, they are always mindful of our budget limitations.

In all of our negotiations, the mission of Project Open Hand is prevalent, and I am proud to say that Bassian Farms continually, on a month-to-month basis, offers us the lowest per pound price on 95% of our protein needs. Who would have thought the highest-quality product could be the lowest possible price among similar vendors?

I look forward to sharing more of these success stories but, more importantly, continually striving to serve our clients the highest-quality food.
