Ten (10) Reasons to Eat Cherryvale Organic Produce
10. More Nutritional Value
Cherryvale Organic produce is harvested and distributed locally. For the customer this means that they are able to enjoy the fresh taste of the produce as well as benefit from the full nutritional value. When items are shipped long distances they lose their vitamins and minerals.
9. Water and Air Quality are Preserved
By avoiding the use of chemicals and harsh pesticides theses materials do not contaminate local water sources or the air. When other farmers spray pesticides on their products the chemicals get absorbed into the soil and filter down into the water table or they are whisked away to the local lakes and streams by rain water.
8. Closely Regulated
Cherryvale Organic Farm is certified organic by Pro-cert. This means that we must meet strict regulations in order to be certified. These regulations ensure that you are not being fed something you are unaware of. This also means no hormones are used or genetically modified items. To adhere to these regulations we must also keep logs of our planting and handling of all our products.
7. Support your Community
Cherryvale is dedicated to providing a quality product to their community members. Every time you purchase and eat Cherryvale products you are helping your neighbors. Organic farming also protects their employees by eliminating the use of dangerous chemicals and pesticides! We are also helping to create a safe workplace for our community members.
6. No shipping
No shipping provides many great perks! First of all less emissions from vehicles are used to deliver locally rather than ship over far distances! This is great for the environment! The other perk is that you get your products faster and they maintain optimum nutrient values! This is great for you!
5. No Chemicals Used
Chemicals are not used as pest control at Cherryvale Organic Farm. Rather then using chemical pesticides, biological treatments and manual removal of pests is preferred. As a customer this means that you do not ingest the various pesticides when you enjoy our produce.
4. Product knowledge
By purchasing Cherryvale Organic products you are guaranteed to know everything about your product. Where it was grown, what was used to feed and nourish it, how it was packaged, and that it is fresh!
3. Environmentally Friendly
Cherryvale does its part in helping our environment. Organic farming practices protect water and soil quality. We are continuously regenerating our soil using natural fertilizers such as compost. Selling to our local community we eliminate bulky packaging and other forms of litter from being put into the environment. We will also be generating our own wind power! These actions greatly help the environment.
2. Variety
Variety is the spice of life and organic products come in all shapes, sizes, and flavors! You will never see such a wide range of colored tomatoes at the grocery store that you will at an organic farm! Such items provide a new experience for you and your family that is healthy and tasty too!
1. Taste
Take one bite of our berries or one smell of our fresh herbs and we are convinced that you will not be disappointed. Eating fresh produce that was not treated with chemicals and pesticides allows you to enjoy the true taste of the produce.
