Sustainability has become something that everyone strives to maintain, not only in our daily lives but also companies and brands have taken to this planet-friendly way of thinking that’s not only good for the planet, but also good for us, the little people who live on this floating rock! But what’s so great about sustainable foods and agriculture? Just about everything. By choosing to eat sustainably sourced foods, you’re automatically making the conscious choice to reduce your carbon footprint and support ethical farming practices that play a bigger impact on biodiversity and promote soil health. How do they do that, you ask? The three R’s! Not unlike how you would reduce waste, reuse plastics rather than dispose of it, and recycle those that can’t be reused feasibly, farmers do this, but for their harverts by reducing and repurposing any waste by reusing any resources available and recycling the nutrients to aid in greater yields and healthier soils! Not only are the lands and plants happier, but so will our tummies when we eat sustainable foods.
One of the biggest benefits when choosing to eat sustainable foods is a humble, wholesome one. No really, it means more wholesome eating! Say goodbye to those mystery, often harmful chemicals in fast producing farming practices and say hello to wholesome eats! With fewer pesticides and additives that are in sustainable farming practices, you’ll be able to enjoy your meal wholeheartedly without any nagging thoughts about what it took to grow a carrot and the like.
Now that we’ve talked about all the benefits of sustainable farming and foods, we’re sure you’re wondering what kinds of food that you can look out for, it’s not just produce, but products that are made with said produce borne of sustainable farming, such brands like Spudsy that uses all of those sweet potatoes that aren’t “perfect” and makes sweet potato fry snacks out of them! Or Sacred Snacks that keeps the sacredness of lotus seeds by handpicking, popping and seasoning in small batches of sustainable perfection! And ALOHA, with every creation of their protein bars, continues to maintain their mission to keep this world a habitable place by using sustainably sourced, plant-based ingredients for their bars! Regenerative farming is also becoming a more prominent practice nowadays and if you fancy yourselves some bone broth whether as a cleanse or just to use as a base for your soups, Kettle and Fire has some bone broths sourced from 100% regenerative farming practices, where their mission is to regenerate the lands by limiting the use of any herbicides or chemical fertilizers whether for their crops of for their animals to chow down on as they graze! And these are just a few examples of brands that are up and coming in the sustainable world.
So what’re you waiting for? Time to get sustainable!
