Delaware Bounty- Farm to Table

Eating local and in-season produce is more than a lifestyle choice—it's a powerful way to support your community, health, and environment. When you buy from local farms, you're investing in your region's economy, helping small-scale growers thrive, and keeping food dollars circulating close to home. Seasonal eating ensures you're consuming fruits and vegetables at their peak flavor and nutritional value, often requiring fewer resources for transport and storage. Beyond the plate, supporting local agriculture helps preserve open space and farmland, maintaining the natural beauty and biodiversity of the local landscape. It's a simple but meaningful step toward a more sustainable and resilient food system.
