How Do Your Deliveries Make a Positive Impact?
Getting groceries from TC Farm supports local sustainable farmers and helps us tranform the local food sytem for the better.
Tough Stat: 8% of local farmers quit every year.
Most farmers are required to handle everything on their own: farming, marketing, storage, deliveries, customer service, technology, etc.). This lifestyle isn't sustainable for the farmer and makes it incredibly difficult for their farms to succeed. Learn more about why we need a new food system here.
