Day Porter

About GreenLeaf

GreenLeaf is proud to have been part of the sustainability food chain since our inception in 1975 when our founder Jameson Patton delivered local and organic produce to San Francisco communes and restaurants out of a 1966 Dodge Windo van named Juliette.

As GreenLeafs reputation blossomed, Jameson and his partner Steve Walton became instrumental in the forming and advancement of CCOF (California Certified Organic Farmers).

Today, with over 2000 discerning customers, GreenLeaf is in the unique position to be able to select and support hundreds of farms and suppliers committed to organic and regenerative farming, ethical ingredient sourcing, worker well-being, and growing local communities.
