- Summary
- The youngest of her parents' combined twenty-one children, Frey moved out of her family home and started her own fresh produce delivery business at fifteen. Two years later, when the family farm faced foreclosure, she took over the farm and started her own produce company there. Refusing to play by traditional rules, Frey talked her way into suit-filled boardrooms and made deals with the nation's largest retailers. Today her family-operated company, Frey Farms, has sold more than a billion dollars' worth of fresh produce, beverages, and consumer packaged goods, and has become one of America's largest fresh produce suppliers, with farmland spread across seven states. Here she tells how she literally dug her destiny out of the dirt. -- adapted from jacket
