Community Roots is helping to rebuild local food economies
We believe that changing the way we produce and distribute food is fundamental to solving the world’s most pressing social and ecological problems.
About Community Roots
We have converted one acre of bare agricultural land into a productive, no-dig, market garden. We produce low-impact, locally grown, healthy food for our community, growing without using chemicals in ways which encourage biodiversity and soil health. We do this with our community, offering volunteering and learning opportunities and hosting activities and events.
Fair prices for farmers and artisan food producers is vital
We pay our suppliers at least 50% of the retail value for any products we buy in, and when dealing with wholesalers, we check to make sure they pay fair prices to their growers.
The benefits of buying local
Local food supports local economies. Food grown in the local community supports local jobs and encourages variety in our diets. It also requires less transportation, so it's fresher and has a smaller environmental footprint.
