About A.R. Teal's

Serving Southeast Washington with Locally Grown Produce & More

Our Story

Chris Teal’s journey from chef to produce distributor began at Public House 124, where he developed a passion for exceptional local ingredients. Coming from working in professional kitchens, Chris understands the challenges restaurants face in sourcing quality produce consistently and reliably.

After years in the culinary industry, Chris recognized the need for a produce distributor that truly understood the restaurant business. In founding A.R. Teal’s Produce, he combined his culinary expertise with a commitment to supporting both local agriculture and the vibrant restaurant scene in Walla Walla Valley and SE Washington.

What started as small-scale row crops sold to just a few restaurants has grown into a trusted wholesale operation serving the finest establishments throughout the region. Our chef-founded heritage means we understand timing, quality, and the specific needs of professional kitchens.
