Fostering a food system that is sustainable, efficient, healthy, and equitable depends not just on what we produce, but HOW. The manner in which we grow, process, and transport food all makes an impact on our natural environment. In this video, we’ll meet four food innovators from the Niagara region who are implementing practices that not only ensure that the process of getting food from the farm to the market is entirely local, but also minimizes ecological impact.

Whether you’re producing flowers, operating a vineyard, growing delicious local peaches, or finding unique uses for lavender, these inspiring entrepreneurs vividly illustrate that quality need not come at the expense of sustainability.
