Let's talk about why "p**p lettuce" is in the headlines. 😂
In all seriousness, food illness is not fun.
It's not really about lettuce, or the produce. t's about scale. When produce is grown across massive fields next to industrial cattle operations, and irrigation water gets shared, tested inconsistently, or not tested at all, contamination becomes a matter of when, not if. Add in a supply chain where one contaminated batch gets mixed with dozens of others before it hits shelves, and you've got a system that's basically designed for outbreaks with almost no one held accountable when it happens, except our bums.
This is why sourcing local and urban farming is the way to go. Smaller footprint. Shorter (or no) supply chain. No shared irrigation with feedlots. No mystery about where your food's been or who's touched it.
All of our seeds are tested, non-GMO, pesticide free. Grown indoors, in small batches, with clean municipal water, the same water you drink. Our send non-GMO. Because "I know exactly where this came from" shouldn't be a luxury. It should be the standard.
Support your local growers. Ask questions about where your food comes from. And maybe give indoor-grown microgreens a shot while you're at it. 🌱
