Often when the phrase “you’ve crossed the line” is used, it’s in a negative context.<br />
However, the people of the GROWMARK System believe that crossing the line in the<br />
other direction – proactively and intentionally making choices that allow for good<br />
things to happen – is a key value that drives our success.<br />
Guided by our mission, vision, and strategic directions, we make the choice, take the<br />
step, and cross the line into the environment where we are able to grow personally and<br />
professionally and realize greater benefits for our patrons and customers.<br />
We are always vigilant, proactively looking toward the future by seeking opportunities<br />
for growth, evaluating and adapting technologies, perfecting our skills, improving<br />
business processes, ensuring reliable supplies of product, and partnering with our<br />
members to capitalize on market development opportunities.<br />
