Their olives are hand-picked and pressed into oil in less than 24 hours, while their tomato canning facility is only a stone's throw away from the fields where the tomatoes are grown. They've also installed solar panels on their warehouse roofs and use fully recyclable or compostable packaging.

United StatesGreat tomato paste
I love this organic tomato paste.
United StatesGreat product!
I love this tomato paste. Contains no additives including the dreadful citric acid. I looked all over for the best price and found it with hive. I ordered 27 jars at once and I am so glad. Wonderfully packed and quick shipping. Thanks!
United StatesExcellent Company and Product!
Love the organic tomato paste in glass. I've ordered it from may places but they always are expensive and quite a few arrive broken. Hives is different. Every time I've bought these from Hives the price is the cheapest around and it arrives wrapped perfectly and no jars break or open. Very happy with the company and the tomato paste.
United StatesVery good taste
Very good taste. This tomato paste really has the natural taste of ripe tomatoes, both slightly sweet and lightly bitter, and is just liquid enough to mix into pasta.
