Papé Machinery Agriculture & Turf is proud to partner with Lundberg Family Farms. As a family-owned business, Papé loves getting the chance to partner with another family-owned company–especially one that is so committed to sustainability, innovation, and the development of new cutting edge farming methods.

Meet the Farm

Lundberg Family Farms has been committed to growing rice in the Sacramento Valley for four generations. They farm, dry, store, mill, manufacture, market, and distribute 168 certified-organic non-GMO products. From jasmine rice to brown rice to risotto to chips, Lundberg Family Farms offers health-forward products for the whole family to enjoy. One of their mottos is “Leave the land better than you found it,” a practice that takes great care, planning, and cutting-edge equipment.

Unique Challenges

Lundberg Family Farms is owned by 30 different families. With a tight-knit team committed to harvesting organic, sustainable products, they need reliable equipment, and can’t afford downtime for excessive repairs or unexpected breakdowns.

Partnering with Papé

Lundberg Family Farms loves partnering with Papé, as we, too, are a family operation committed to building lasting partnerships. Mike Denny, Vice President says, “We like that Papé is a family operation, and they care. I think that’s what really the difference is. They’ve been fantastic.”

One-Stop Shop

Papé is a one-stop shop, and Lundberg Family Farms loves that. The Papé team is knowledgeable about all aspects of equipment, and offers service, sales, and repair, which is extremely effective for time-sensitive operations like Lundberg. 

With supply chain shortages, getting replacement machinery can be challenging. However, Papé Machinery Agriculture & Turf makes a concerted effort to do everything we can to help our customers and partners. Mike Denny, Vice President of Lundberg Family Farms says “We have noticed that Papé goes above and beyond. They’re responsive to our needs, they’re on the phone, they’re getting us replacement equipment and they understand how important it is to keep us going.”
