In 1904 grass seed was swept together in haylofts as a way of seed collection. Joseph Theodore Barenbrug recognized the need for a different approach. His entrepreneurial spirit was driven by the recognition that seed should “be cultivated in a professional manner by a specialized company”. From that spirit the company Barenbrug was founded. Not only was a company created, but this manner of thought, as well as the products and varieties that would follow, began a Legacy.

Needless to say, we have come out of the drought and are once again sick of the rain, with a few more months of it to go.
