Virginia Food Works is a non-profit organization that guides food producers in taking their product from recipe to retail. We offer contract packing (“co-packing”) services, specializing in the creation of value-added foods from locally grown ingredients.

Virginia Farm Bureau visited the Cannery during Garner’s Produce pepper jelly production in Jan. 2020.

Virginia has one of the most versatile climates for growing crops, and yet 85% to 90% of what Virginians eat is sourced from out-of-state. Our hope is to add even more options for Virginians to enjoy the variety of locally grown produce from our state.

Virginia Food Works can assist you in renting the VDACS inspected commercial kitchen with our qualified staff to create and bottle your recipe – check out our product development and food processing services for more information.
