Happy National Farmer Day!
We’ve seen how critical local farms are, especially in times of crisis. The pandemic revealed the fragility of global supply chains, with empty grocery shelves and disrupted shipments. But local supply chains stepped up, showing us that food produced closer to home isn’t just fresher—it’s more reliable when it matters most.
By supporting local farmers, we…..
- Strengthen food security
- Reduce environmental impact
- Keep dollars circulating in the community
Local supply chains aren’t just about food—they’re about resilience. They allow us to pivot quickly, meet evolving community needs, and reduce our reliance on distant sources vulnerable disruption. Make sure to thank your local farmer and by thank, we mean purchase from them.
