How it does good
Industrial farming is filled with environmental concerns and problems for family farmers. In an effort to bring better produced snacks into the world, co-founders Bjorn and Jamie combined family farming with serious sustainability measures. BQ Farms has a hands on approach to growing their crops which ensures high quality results all around. Their facilities rely on solar energy, and they pop their corn using sunlight. They started out with giant hemispheric cookers in the Hudson Valley and moved on to a solar barn in 2017. Right now, they're producing all the energy they use, making their farms energy independent.
