Did you know that annually, roughly one-third of all food generated for human consumption is wasted? That’s four times the amount of food needed to completely eliminate global hunger! Food waste impacts economic, environmental, and social sustainability through impeded development, wasted natural resources, and pollution. Food waste also burdens our global food system, challenging nations to meet food demands without risking the resources and health of future generations.

 

Is it important to you to make a difference? The good news is you can! There is no single solution to ending food waste. If we all chip in, and change our behaviors both collectively and individually, we have everything required to redistribute and rescue potentially wasted foods, and we can educate the public on food waste prevention to improve responsible use of foods. At Farmhouse Delivery our goal is to make every effort we can to support the sustainability of our food system while also bringing nutritious, healthy food to your door.

More Flavor, More Variety, Great Taste

Does the idea of more varieties, choices, tastes, and flavors from your food excite you? Organic farming has a variety of positive effects on improving biodiversity of landscapes, including the soil, flora, and fauna, and can increase species richness by as much as 30%!
