Why Buy Local?

View of farmland in Sunderland and So. Deerfield, MA

There are many benefits of buying local in addition to supporting your local economy.

By supporting local farms, you are helping to preserve open spaces. Purchasing products from local farmers helps to keep them in business. In return, this helps to protect farmland from becoming developed.

Buying local also reduces the use of fossil fuels and helps to protect the environment from harmful exhaust fumes. When you buy local, your produce will not have traveled hundreds or even thousands of miles.

By buying local, you are receiving the freshest possible produce, picked just hours before delivery to your local store.

Thank you for buying local.
