If we are looking to put food on the table for our family why do we only consider price and convenience?
When considering your purchases for a motor vehicle, TV or other household appliance we will use the ease and convenience of technology to be informed on quality, price, delivery, safety for family and longevity to make the best decision….
Are we really connecting with the people who matter the most? The people who contribute to our lives in meaningful and essential ways? Are we acknowledging the role that these individuals play in our health, well-being and education? And that of our children and family?
Your local farmers can supply your food needs with products that are more nourishing as they are fresher having travelled less kilometres to your plate and have utilised practices that are more sensitive to the environment.
Biodiversity, regenerative farming, sustainable agriculture… all of these terms are the focus of your local farmer. Their knowledge put into practice ensures our landscape captures and utilises water more efficiently and provides nourishment to replenish the planet.
Their story; commitment to consumers and respect for the animals & environment will provide you with a transparent look into your food community from paddock to plate.
Utilise your technology to get to know your farmer.
To assist I will be preparing some blogs under the heading of Know your Farmer that will highlight some of the work being carried out by our hard working farmers committed to nurturing our planet back to health as well as our family.
