Ripe Red Opportunities
The Mooney family knows a lot about tomatoes. That’s because more than 20 years ago, they decided their farming future depended on the bright red tomatoes that make up an important part of many people’s diets.

Today, the Mooney family produces an extensive line of sun-dried tomato products sold around the world. It’s a business that began when the Mooneys realized their kiwi farming operation did not provide the income they needed to keep their farm going. They began buying dried tomatoes and developing a product line that quickly became profitable.
