Sustainable Agriculture
Even today many berry growers and harvesters in Serbia sell their berries below production cost due to agricultural decentralization, leading them to a lower quality of life and dependency on government hand-outs. If one knows where their food comes from one develops a different connection with the food they are a consuming, a human connection.
Many berry growers have big families that have been working together for generations and slowly they are leaving, disappearing into big cities in search for a better life.
These are just some of the stories which inspire our team to directly sources the berries from farming cooperatives in Serbia at fair prices.
Benefits of Buying Sustainable
- Farming communities are provided socioeconomic equality and are not leaving their communities for big cities
- Traditional farming way of life and techniques are preserved for future generations to enjoy
- Serbian farmers typically have family farms; keeping them on the farms reduces the possibility of land selloff to big corporates to exploit land for mass production
- No mass exploitation of land ensures the natural quality of the soil stays high, with a rich biodiversity of organisms
