In 2003, Australian farmer John Foss founded The Chia Co with a strong vision: to improve the health of the global community by making chia available to everyone, every day.

Pioneer of the sustainable farming genre, John comes from a family tree stacked with four generations of farming in their blood. Enlisting the help of local farmers who shared his vision, John established the world's largest scale sustainable chia farms in Western Australia. He also set up a completely transparent supply chain, ensuring fair value for every person involved along the way – like a farmer's market model, on a global scale.

In 2007, after a few years of agronomic research and trials, entrepreneurial farmers Robert Boshammer and Tim Croot joined The Chia Co as partners to help John take this important seed to a global market.
