Three generations of soybean farming excellence
Founded in 1995 by agricultural pioneer John Richardson, Golden Harvest Soybeans began as a small family farm in California's Central Valley. What started as 50 acres of soybeans has grown into one of the most respected soybean producers in the West.
Today, under the leadership of John's daughter Emily Richardson-Chen, we maintain our commitment to sustainable farming while expanding our product line to bring the nutritional benefits of soy to more consumers.
We're proud to remain family-owned and operated, with the third generation now learning the business and bringing fresh ideas to our operations.
