Village Harvest Rice - A Kitchen's Tradition

Village Harvest believes in the importance of authenticity and tradition in the kitchen. That’s why we searched to the ends of the earth to bring our customers the freshest, finest, and most authentic rice. Village Harvest rice comes from the very lands where they originated so you know the meals you prepare maintain the highest authenticity in taste, texture and fragrance. Although Village Harvest is based in San Francisco, we grow our Jasmine in the heart of Thailand, our Basmati rice at the base of the Himalayas and our Arborio in the Po Valley of Piemonte, Italy. We demand that Jasmine maintain its natural translucent color, and that when cooked, it released its natural soft aroma. As it did thousands of years ago, Village Harvest Basmati elongates in shape when immersed in hot water and releases a soft aroma. Village Harvest Arborio absorbs the nutrients and richness of Italian soil so that when it becomes a delicious risotto, the texture the plump pearl kernels becomes soft and creamy. In fact, Village Harvest rice is the only imported, organic Jasmine, Basmati, and Arborio on the market today. Village Harvest rice brings the aromas, textures and tastes of Thailand, India, and Italy onto your kitchen table.

In the Beginning

Our dedication to the finest quality food began long before Village Harvest. Since 1892, we have repeatedly set the standard of quality for grains and other products in our goal to raise the standard of authenticity, taste and nutrition. As the largest supplier of jasmine rice to the United States, we felt it was our responsibility to provide your home with an alternative to the domestically grown, factory produced rice that has lost the original value of rice. From these principles were born our highest ideal of rice: Village Harvest.
