Manager, Topflavor Farms
A second-generation farmer, Tony Alameda, along with his two brothers Steve and Craig, and father Mel began The Alameda Company, formerly known as L.S. Williams Company in Fremont, California. Established in 1983, their farming operation focused on vegetable production in both California and Mexico. TopFlavor Farms was established in the Yuma region and expanded into the Salinas and San Juan Valleys and has grown into a diverse, family farming operation that produces over two dozen different commodities.
Tony is also a co-founder of Sabor Farms, a farming operation with an emphasis on specialty items. Tony and his wife, Cathy, also established Gud Pak Harvesting, which has since partnered to transform into today's Foothill Packing. Alameda is President of United Vegetable Growers Cooperative, a member of San Benito and Monterey County Farm Bureaus and supporter of San Benito and Monterey County fairs.
