#sustainability is at forefront of every decision we make as team. 🌎 To many this would just be a pile of garlic and onion cuttings and scraps, and honestly, it is that in its simplest form. 🧅🧄 But go a layer deeper (yes we love puns) and you’ll see so much more. These onions and garlic were grown right here in #lowell by the @millcitygrows program (and @lolaeforall alumni). They toil and work their #urbanfarm to provide for the #lowellcommUnity, which we are proud to be part of. 🙌 We take their #trulylocal #NewEnglandGrown produce and craft it into our #artisanalspreadsformorethanjustbreads to share with you all, our faithful #jamfam. ❤️ But when we cook, nothing gets just ‘tossed’... ♻️ Every scrap from our process gets converted into #blackgold by the amazing and driven team at @offbeetcompost (another outstanding @eforallhq alumni) who takes the communities organic matter and transforms what many call trash (garbage or rubbish depending on your house vernacular) and they make sure these precious resources are converted back into compost, which is shared back into our #commUnity, including our homes humble #victorygarden... ✊ When you pick up your favorite flavors, whether it’s from our booth at a local market, or shipped directly to you through our website at GratefulTastes.com (link in bio), we are constantly reviewing how we do everything to ensure it not only keeps you all happy, but pushes us to do better. 🙏 From our #biodegradable labels, to #postconsumerecycled packaging, to our exclusive choice to use only #usamade🇺🇸 glass jars to reduce carbon emissions and give you a container you can #upcycle for generations, we do everything with tomorrow and our earth in mind. And when sampling returns after we’ve beaten COVID together, they’ll be on #compostablecutlery and discarded in #compostablewastebags, and then you guessed it, #composted, because every little thing we each do can add up to a lot if we do it together. 🌎 #grateful #gratefultastes #lowellbusiness #leadbyexample #earthmother #motherearth #doyourpart #morethanjustjams #eforall #lolaeforall #eforallfam #wewillsurvive https://www.instagram.com/p/CCZTnD5AWuC/?igshid=xdqv9m31ived
