Bella Bean Organics and Coon Rock Farm CSA
merge with Triangle Urban Growers


(February 28, 2024) Hillsborough, NC. – Bella Bean Organics (www.bellabeanorganics.com) and Coon Rock Farm’s CSA (www.coonrockfarm.com) have been sold to Tami Purdue and Jenn Truman of Triangle United Growers (TUG, https://www.triangleunitedgrowers.com/). The online farmer’s market specializing in fresh, locally grown, sustainable and organic produce, meats, eggs and artisan specialty foods, has serviced the Piedmont region of North Carolina with home delivery service since 2009.

Since purchasing Bella Bean Organics in 2012, Coon Rock Farm owners and entrepreneurs Jamie and Richard Holcomb have dramatically increased product selection, geographic delivery footprint and customer base. “We’ve found home delivery to be the fastest growing segment of our farm’s business, echoing that of the local, organic food movement,” explained Holcomb. “There’s a real demand for sustainable, farm-grown food that’s also convenient.”

Health-conscious consumers have relied on Bella Bean Organics and Coon Rock Farm to satisfy their craving for local foods and fulfill the majority of their weekly shopping needs and merging with TUG just grows this network. They tap into as many as 50 local farms for everything from collards and oak-grown shiitakes, to local bacon, grass-fed beef, heirloom turkeys and sustainably caught seafood, to offer over 1000 products. “Our goal is to offer such a well-rounded selection that you really can do all of your weekly grocery shopping” explained Jamie Holcomb, who remembers spending half of every week traveling to farmers markets, grocery stores and receiving mail orders to source these foods. “Offering the convenience of home delivery and the ability to customize a selection that works for your family has been critical to providing more folks access to these delicious and nutritious foods,” explained Jamie.

With immediate access to one of the country’s richest and most diverse agricultural regions, this farm-based merger of local food businesses, based in Hillsborough, NC, is able to meet the demands of a hungry customer base. “We’re fortunate to have so many small and specialized growers and artisans to work with in North Carolina – from the Piedmont to the mountains and the coast”, explained Truman, “that they’re able to offer an extensive selection in every category to fulfill customers’ needs.”
