4 Seasons has been a fundraising company providing quality fundraising items to school and community organizations in Iowa and the upper Midwest since 1970. Lyle Roberts founded Flo-Tex, now known as 4 Seasons Fund Raising in the fall of 1970, brokering citrus fruit to FFA Chapters in Iowa from a small office in Des Moines. He coordinated shipments of orchard fresh citrus from Florida and Texas to neighboring FFA Chapters so they could provide their communities with fresh fruit. He soon added Washington State apples and a gift box of three natural cheeses that he called Goldfield’s Pride after the cheese factory in Goldfield Iowa.

In 1977 4 Seasons moved to Norwalk, IA. This location offered cold storage for the cheese and apples as well as a place to coordinate deliveries. During the early years, the need for variety lead to offering more gift boxes, cold pack cheese cups, cheese spread and a variety of meats. Candy and nuts appeared in about 1987 and the addition of brochures and programs has grown since then. Due to the company continuing to expand in 2013 4 Seasons moved to their current location, still in Norwalk, IA.

In 1993 4 Seasons added both frozen food and a number of complimentary programs that contain seasonal, gift and novelty items. The program was very well received due to the ease and convenience of pre-packed student orders. This has truly strengthened our position in the fundraising community. We are now able to offer a wide variety of programs to meet the growing needs of school and civic organizations.
