Fair Trade Matters on All Food!

Nov 1,2024

Fair Trade Matters on all Food

Dear World,

Right now, I know everyone feels overwhelmed by inflation and the cost of meeting our everyday needs You also have a lot of choices to make around this time of the year as you prepare for winter and the holiday season.

If you are in a position to choose my farm products, I just want to give you a few details to the bigger picture of what you are supporting.

1.       Women and men who assist in food production are paid fair wages. Fair trade matters at home too!

2.       You get more than you pay for! When you buy my products, you will see that what you get is extremely competitive in price to the grocery stores. Don’t be sticker shocked until you try the food and see what meat that doesn’t shrink looks like. I’m sure everyone is familiar with the economic term "value".  We all seek items or activities with increased value.  Value is a function of quality divided by cost.  Increase the quality or decrease the cost = greater value and vise versa.  While my products may have a SLIGHT elevation re: cost compared to retail sources, my customers will attest to the greater quality found in my products, thereby increasing the value!

3.       Buying products from me contributes to the circular economy. What is a circular economy? It means that small businesses, doing business in Alberta, keep the money in Alberta.  This helps to keep Albertans to keep employed.

4.       Sustainable, local farming practices keep the knowledge and traditions of growing food in our climate. Further it contributes to our resilience going forward.

5.        When you buy from me, you have the option to come to the farm, and see all that goes into growing food, in a slow and traditional way.

6.       Finally, you are supporting keeping a small farm in production. The reality is that land is getting scooped up, bush and shelter belts are getting cut down by large agriculture initiatives including colonies and other large corporate farmers. There are not many small farms left!

If you choose us, we will welcome you with open arms!
