Today, she leads one of the largest organic vegetable growing operations in Texas.\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size:85%\">Eight years ago, Courtney Schuster Moore had no plans to become a farmer. Today, she leads one of the largest organic vegetable growing operations in Texas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nSweetgreen today premiered the latest installment of its \u201cFaces of the Farm\u201d original content series, spotlighting Schuster and Rio Fresh, the Texas-based, family-run farm where she built an organic program from the ground up.<\/p>\n<p>\nAfter a career in aerospace, Schuster returned to her family\u2019s farm and made a pivotal decision following a call from Sweetgreen during a kale shortage: to pursue organic farming in South Texas, one of the toughest regions in the U.S., where year-round pest pressure and no true winter reset mean organic growing often fails.<\/p>\n<p>\nWhat followed was a process of learning in real time, adapting to extreme South Texas conditions, embracing emerging technology, and even transplanting at night under stadium lights to help crops survive. With a willingness to experiment, Moore built the foundation for a rapidly expanding organic program, supported by a long-term partnership with Sweetgreen that helped scale operations from approximately 50 acres to more than 850 today. Rio Fresh now grows 15 organic commodities, has supplied Sweetgreen with more than 5.7 million pounds of organic kale, and ships produce to 20 states and Canada.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn an industry and region where women remain underrepresented, Schuster\u2019s path stands out not just for representation, but for scale. As one of the few female farmers in South Texas and an even smaller minority among organic producers, she represents a new generation reshaping modern agriculture.<\/p>\n<p>\nAt the core of her approach is a belief in growing great things in hard places, whether that\u2019s crops in extreme conditions or raising her three children while building the farm. She describes both as a process of \u201creading needs and responding,\u201d approaching each with care, patience, and adaptability, and tending to the land with a kind of \u201cmothering\u201d instinct rooted in responsibility for what\u2019s growing.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cEight years ago, this started as a leap of faith,\u201d said Courtney Schuster Moore, Organic Program Manager, Rio Fresh Farms. \u201cIt hasn\u2019t been easy, there are challenges every single day, but having partners like Sweetgreen believe in what we were building, and in the importance of regenerative and organic agriculture, made all the difference. It\u2019s the most meaningful and rewarding work I could be doing. Farming has become my calling, and I\u2019m so grateful I get to follow in my father\u2019s footsteps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nFaces of the Farm is part of Sweetgreen\u2019s ongoing commitment to connecting guests more deeply to the people behind its ingredients. Through original storytelling, the series highlights the farmers and growers who make its menu possible, offering a closer look at the work, challenges, and care behind every ingredient.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWhen we started Sweetgreen, our mission was to connect more people to real food and the farmers behind it,\u201d said Nicolas Jammet, Co-founder and Chief Concept Officer of Sweetgreen. \u201cCourtney\u2019s story is a powerful example of what that connection can look like in practice &#8211; how partnership, persistence, and a shared belief in better ingredients can drive real change on the farm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nBuilt on decades of family farming in South Texas, Rio Fresh has grown into a large-scale operation rooted in quality and long-term stewardship, with its organic program now central to the farm\u2019s future.<\/p>\n<p>\nSweetgreen visited the farm to capture Schuster\u2019s story, sharing behind-the-scenes content across its digital platforms.
