Going Green with Underwood
Underwood Family Farms is working to do our
part to help the environment. All of our promotional materials are
printed on post-consumer recycled paper & we do our best to minimize
waste both in our offices and in the field. We hope to have
re-useable shopping bags by the end of the year in addition to the
handmade grass Bolga Baskets that we sell at both of our Farm Markets.
By supporting your local farmer, you are doing your part to help the
environment. As written in June 2007 Better Homes and
Gardens, typical grocery store produce travels nearly 1,500 miles before
it reaches your home. Traveling burns fossil fuels and as a result
carbons are emitted which translates to pollution. Buying from
your local farmer either at a Roadside Market or a Farmers' Markets, not
only means you are getting the freshest produce around, but also that
you are helping to save energy.
Check back soon to find out more ways Underwood Family Farms is helping to
save our environment.
