LFP – Canada’s Local Sustainable Food Organization from Sustain Ontario on Vimeo.
This video looks at Local Food Plus (LFP) and their positive impact on the community as a third party certifying body that works to build awareness amongst consumers about the value of buying locally produced food. LFP has developed a certification protocol to assess farms and processors with environmental and sustainable practices so various buyers can find certifiably local sustainable food. This work allows for expanding markets at home and better choices in buying food. We see numerous vibrant, healthy farms and food along with a network of passionate individuals that care for the well-being of their consumers – consumers who can securely know, for instance, that an apple was grown sustainably in their backyard.
