OUR TEAM
“We’re part of a movement that’s trying to save the world, so our ambition is massive.”
DAVID LIVELY, OGC CO-FOUNDER
For over 40 years, our vision has been to make the world a better place, one organic produce delivery at a time.
We owe our success and reputation to the integrity and quality of our people. Our culture promotes a passion for produce and sustainability, exceptional customer service, diversity, and trust.
COWORKER SPOTLIGHT
Our coworkers are thoughtful, experienced and dedicated individuals that as a whole represent a truly remarkable team of people working to change the way people eat. From Transportation to Logistics, Warehousing, Purchasing, Quality Assurance, Finance, Marketing, Sales, HR, IT, Maintenance and Operations, every department at OGC is teeming with talent. Here are just a few of the over 250 OGC coworkers that help make what we do possible.
Jess Hardin
Buyer
Jess’ number one goal at OGC is to support our growers and find homes for all their incredible organic produce. Work seems easy when it’s fun, and Jess certainly gets a kick out of produce. It’s the dynamic atmosphere at OGC that keeps him engaged and loving it. From the range and variety in what we offer and the partnership with growers to navigate the challenges of bringing produce to market, there’s always something exciting happening. Jess is thrilled to work alongside coworkers with a common interest in organic produce!

Olea Stevens
Driver
Before joining OGC as one of our outstanding drivers, Olea was a ballerina, an engineer, a rideshare driver and property manager. This powerhouse is also a textile artist, Balkan folklore enthusiast, Bulgarian flautist and can do some damage in the kitchen, too! The list of things that Olea loves about her role as a driver is long, but near the top is that time behind the wheel allows her to consume plenty of audio media and think creatively.

Shawn Huitt
warehouser III
Passionate about music, Shawn’s taste has a broad range from classical, to bluegrass and classic rock. But his biggest love is metal. A writer and producer, Shawn mixes his own music in his home studio. Shawn brings that same passion for music to work and is appreciated by his coworkers for being methodical, reliable and a hard worker who is known to complete a project and then ask, “what’s next?” When asked what makes his job at OGC great, Shawn is quick to answer: “the people.”
