An apparatus and method for filling bags achieves a substantially uniform fill level in bags. The apparatus includes a bag support that exerts pressure on the bags during filling of the bag such that the level of filling media among the bag is more evenly distributed. The apparatus and method also reliably maintain a sterile region during filling of bags by pressurizing the region before beginning bag filling operations.
