Why Buy Local?

Local produce is fresher and more nutritious.

Since it has just been recently picked, local produce tastes better and is packed with nutrition.

Buying local helps our environment

Since your meal from farm to table travels less time than from farm to grocery to table, which travels on the average about 1500 miles. There is also less pollution from unnecessary shipping packaging and fewer fossils fuels are burned during transportation, which means you are helping create a lighter carbon footprint. 

​Buying local supports our local economy!

Your food choices make a difference.  Buying local food helps create a stronger and more sustainable food system.
