Where does the produce in Biofarm Farm Stand come from?

Biofarm grows many of the food ingredients offered on the Farm Stand using organic and sustainable methods and also provides the same from other local farmers in the southeast. Biofarm strives to provide consumers with the highest quality, fresh, locally grown fruits, vegetables, ornamental plants, and related farm products.

 

Why eat whole produce and plant-based ingredients grown on the farm? 

  • Most of the food in the stores contain pesticide residues and are processed with chemical additives that harm our body processes.
  • Eating whole foods and natural foods that are minimally processed are more easily metabolized in a healthy way.
  • Most highly and complexed processed foods contain synthetic ingredients and unhealthy fats, sodium, added sugars and artificial additives.
  • Snack foods are especially highly processed and have unhealthy additives.  Eating plant based whole ingredient snacks from the farm without systemic and toxic pesticides provide essential nutrients for health . Some examples of whole foods include fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and whole grains.
