No other Pennsylvania seed producer can
equal Hoffman’s long experience in producing
large quantities of seed grains.
Hoffman quality makes a big difference too.
Hoffman begins with good foundation seed,
grows it in selected fields under personal
supervision. It’s cared for and harvested
under special conditions to maintain high
quality. Better cleaning, careful laboratory
testing and good handling and storage round
out the quality picture.
