There seems to be more of a focus on local business if you were to look into any quality farmers market. The idea of freshness is one that cannot be overlooked, especially when these crops are going to be sold on a local basis more than anything else. That being said, is it possible for more holistic efforts to be had in the realm of farming? Judging by a recent story that came to my attention, I believe that this change can benefit both consumers and growers in this field.
There was an article posted on Charlottesville Tomorrow that detailed the efforts of Chris and Annie Newman, a couple living in Virginia. They worked together in order to create SylvanAqua Farms, which is a business that focuses more so on the idea of a holistic approach. I think that this is great, seeing as how smaller amounts of substantial crops are going to be able to benefit a smaller group of individuals. While the business in general is something to consider, I believe that there is much more to see in terms of the company's development.
It's clear that the Newmans have been able to attain success, both because of their own efforts and those thanks to outside support. The article said that the company raised $8,000 thanks to a Kickstarter campaign. However, in a show of support for the business they looked to build, they sold their house as well. If nothing else, the efforts made on the part of the couple are those which stand as some of the most tremendous that, in my mind, can ever be imagined.
Expansion is planned for SylvanAqua, which is something that is required for any quality farmers market to thrive. Currently, the company only offers pumpkin pies and broiler chickens, so it is clear that there is more than a bit of room for more items to be added to the mix. However, the company plans to expand its inventory to include such aspects as eggs, heirloom vegetables, or what have you. These particular items are worth getting organic and authorities like Colle Farmers Market will agree.
The idea of not only growing food for the masses but making sure that said masses are aware of the processes is vital. I am sure that many would like to have a general idea of where their food is coming from and this is something that any quality farmers market can stand to help. With this in mind, isn't it a given that consumers will be more likely to invest? SylvanAqua is growing and, in time, even more products will be offered to those who are inclined to buy.
