Wholesale Sprout Farm - Sunny Creek Farm

About Sunny Creek

In 1990, 28-year-old Lee Ewing, who had moved to North Carolina from California, was working as an assistant chef at the Pine Crest Inn in Tryon. He noticed the Inn had great difficulty obtaining fresh, good quality sprouts. Lee had been the manager of a sprout farm in California and immediately saw a niche for a new sprout farm in the Carolinas. He began growing Alfalfa Sprouts and Mung Beans and started distributing them to the local stores and restaurants. By 1995 then, Green Creek Sprouts had grown into a major supplier for not only local stores, but also some larger grocery chains. Talks between Lee and Ed Mills, owner of Sunshine Maker’s Sprout Farm in Fairview, North Carolina later formed a merger between the two companies. Thus, Sunny Creek Farm, Inc. was born.

Today, Sunny Creek Farm is the largest supplier of fresh sprouts in the southeast. The facility has grown into a modern, state of the art plant with a well-trained staff and comprehensive food safety program.
