On the Ground Update: Three New Local Partners

We are proud to announce that we have recently begun sourcing from three new, local family businesses. These farms comprise a step in our efforts to provide more locally grown food and meet our commitment to purchase 20% real food by 2020.

Atlas Farm is an 85-acre diversified, organic vegetable farm in its thirteenth year of operation. Their farm is “dedicated to producing food in a way that will maintain biological diversity, support natural ecosystems, and keep the land productive for future generations.”
