Homegrown Produce Is Here!

   

Homegrown Proud
What is local to you? For us, it’s tradition. It's a tradition that's right for the farmer. Right for our customers. And right for Dierbergs – after all, we're a homegrown company too.

The Largest & Freshest Selection of Local Produce

We are proud to give locally-owned family farms a chance to sell their crops locally. Each summer we look forward to the seasonal produce grown right here in Missouri and Illinois.

Local Fields, Local Farmers, Local Deliveries

At Dierbergs, our Homegrown means the produce you purchase has been picked, packed and delivered to our stores in 24 hours or less! Freshness & quality you can see and taste.
