Our Story.
In 1946, Pratum, Oregon farmers founded a Co-Op to grow prime Willamette Valley grass seed. 75 years later, Pratum Co-Op’s grain elevator is a landmark, and Mountain View Seeds varieties reap the benefits of that outstanding farmer network. Mountain View Seeds was created in 1998 to manage mounting seed demand for Pratum’s private variety production. At Mountain View Seeds we are proud to be owned by those same farmers. Being farmer owned ensures that the high quality and performance standards we demand are never compromised. Being connected to our grower base allows us to effectively communicate our needs and requirements. So whether you are the Rose Bowl or a home owner the same care and attention is placed on every pound of seed we produce and sell.
Meet the family.
At the core of every great company, there is a set of values that we believe are necessary to keep a family together. Mountain View Seeds believe in better relationships, better communication, better ethics and better results. We believe in better.
Our Mission.
Our goal is to breed and produce a grass that will exceed the highest of expectations, without the need for excess and harsh inputs. To produce better, with less is our mission, to cultivate an understanding for our friends and families so that together Mountain View Seeds can ensure a cleaner, brighter and healthier future.
