Homegrown Foods saw China as a place with huge potential for reversing the current fast-food trend by setting the benchmark in agriculture while advocating the benefits of eating premium, sustainable clean food. So the search was on for organic ingredients produced with integrity...

In early 2009, we initiated contact with local farms that shared our vision. The area covered extends from the northern New Territories of Hong Kong to across the border in China. Testing, testing and more stringent testing of produce from these farms followed - and relationships between us and the farmers were established. By mid-2009, this clean and sustainable produce was incorporated into recipes at Posto Pubblico - Hong Kong's original New York Italian Osteria.

Proven demand and ample supply unveiled an opportunity - why not make such ingredients readily available to consumers through a direct-to-household service?

Homegrown Foods was officially launched in mid-2010. The initial two delivery districts quickly extended to eight in just a few months. As a service provider whose core values include putting the consumer first, Homegrown Foods now delivers to anywhere in Hong Kong, 7 days a week.

Premium clean food at its peak - from our farms to your table Homegrown Foods is dedicated to promoting healthy lifestyles by offering food that is at its nutritional and palatable peak. We partner with local family farms that use a convenient and economical system to harvest crops at their optimal ripeness - to bring you locally-grown, organic food that tastes better and is better for you.

Putting 'our mission' where our mouth is - random independent testing with Enviro Labs (the world's leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company) is done annually.

Looks can be deceiving. Taste is defining. Overseas produce are picked before they fully ripen to offset the long distance they must travel before arriving to you ‘fresh’. By the time they hit the supermarket shelves, their ripeness has occurred over a course of many miles traveled on an airplane in darkness. Their nutrition and flavor fall well short of their potential - having been plucked too early from the vine, branch or earth that provides continuing nutrients.
