Quality assessment
An unusually well-documented tomato supply chain for a packaged product: a single NAMED grower farm (Cliff Fong's family farm, Yolo County), USDA Organic certified, harvested and processed within hours -- the kind of named-single-site traceability this rubric rewards most. The one caveat is that canning happens at Olam, a large third-party multinational cannery in Williams, CA, rather than on-site -- noted as a transparency caveat, not a tier-reducing one, since the growing side is fully named and certified.

Caveats
Do not conflate with a bare 'Chris Bianco's tomatoes' menu claim -- that phrase alone was left unlinked because it could describe a housemade recipe rather than this specific purchased product.
