If You Bring A Farmer’s Market To Me, I’ll Love You Forever

ot only do I get to save time by ordering my goods online and having it show up at my door, but I also get to feel good about myself for supporting a company who believes in sustainability.  They base their approach on the United Nations’ definition of sustainability: “sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”

• At least 50% of their products are locally sourced and 100% of their produce is either certified organic or local and sustainably produced.
• There is very little non bio-degradable waste.  A cute, crunchy guy showed up at my door with two packed cardboard boxes – which they take back to their warehouse to be re-used, and almost no plastic.
• They have an up-cycling program to collect and re-use hard to recycle items throughTerraCycle.
• They compost whatever food waste they have.
