Did you know that supporting local farmers and businesses not only benefits our community but also helps promote sustainability? In this video (https://youtu.be/MaYbZAvep8g), our owner Ravi Dhaliwal shares his passion for local farming and sustainable practices.
Ravi explains how important it is to support local farmers who use sustainable practices such as crop rotation and natural pest control to keep the land fertile and reduce the use of harmful chemicals. By doing so, we can ensure that the land remains healthy and productive for future generations.
He also highlights the efforts of local restaurants and businesses that source ingredients locally and reduce food waste. By supporting these establishments, we can reduce the carbon footprint of food transportation and promote sustainability in the food industry.
Local farmers put in a tremendous amount of effort to grow crops that are not only healthy and delicious but also eco-friendly. They use sustainable practices such as crop rotation, natural pest control, and reducing water usage to ensure that the land remains fertile for future generations.
And it’s not just the farmers who are making a difference. Local restaurants and businesses are also doing their part by sourcing ingredients locally and reducing food waste. By supporting these establishments, you are helping to reduce the carbon footprint of food transportation and promoting sustainability in the food industry.
