“We are committed to working with local sustainable farms we personally know and trust. Our fresh picks will arrive at your door ripe and bursting with flavor, vitamins and minerals within hours of leaving the farm. We're as proud of our farmers as they are of their food, and have developed tracking systems for the great local products in your order so we can tell you who raised them and how they protect your health and the environment.”
We want to grow the supply and demand for local food in order to reduce the negative environmental effect of agriculture. As we work to provide a convenient access point for people to buy great local food all year round, we then increase demand so farmers can have the confidence to invest and expand sustainable growing. We help to link local farms together on transportations routs towards the Chicago area, improving the efficiency of how local food gets to all of us.
Seeing the impact of our service with increased local sustainable growing. Buying from new farmers and helping them enter the Chicago market. Having customers be so excited about the fresh food they receive and trying new foods they had not tried before. Many customers say they fell healthier by eating a more diverse and seasonal diet.
When Mother Nature makes the growing harder with flooding, winds, fluctuating temperature, and the bitter cold, causing loss of crops, expense to our farmers and less local produce for our customers.
We are able to provide a wide variety of fresh local produce, meats, dairy, eggs, and more from dozens of farms all year round delivered to people’s homes and offices throughout the greater Chicago area. We tell our customers where each local item in an order comes from so they can know the name and location of the farm and how it was grown. We provide great flexibility and convenience for eating local food with deliveries scheduled as often as a person wants and an ability to order specific food items.
We hope to provide great local food to many more customers throughout the Chicago area and increase local organic growing and the number of farms we are able to work with.
