February Partner of the Month: Lancaster Farm Fresh
Meet Lancaster Farm Fresh Cooperative (LFFC), our featured partner for February. LFFC is a cooperative of organic produce growers, representing 40 small, family farms in Lancaster County growing certified-organic produce and grass-fed animal products. Through the marketing and delivery services of LFFC, these farmers provide the Lancaster and Philly metro area with some of the best, fresh, certified organic farm products in the region. Households can join through a Community Supported Agriculture subscription. Restaurants can also register as wholesale buyers. To learn more, visit LFFC at http://www.lancasterfarmfresh.com/
In the global food chain, farmers get less than 20% return on the consumer food dollar. LFFC returns 75% of its revenue to the farmer: that’s over $1.5 million dollars in 2008!
LFFC, will you be our Valentine?
