Letter
from CEO & Chief Fungi
Hello Friends,
As you know,
building sustainable food systems takes a lot of work, and is much more
a process and journey than it is a singular destination. I think that
many of us in the community have the view that our work and our impact
will continue to unfold over many years.
In my opinion, one of the most enriching aspects of this
great adventure is having the opportunity to work with and learn from
exemplary leaders and profoundly innovative organizations working in
our rapidly evolving civic and market ecosystem.
B Lab is one such
organization. A nonprofit corporation dedicated to using the power of
business to solve social and environmental problems. B Lab has
certified over 1,000 companies and organizations as B Corporations!
Notable among these are Colorado-based Door to Door Organics ,
Bhakti Chai, New Belgium Brewery,
and The Tea Spot, just
to name a few.
I am very
happy, on behalf of the entire SOURCE Local family, to announce that SOURCE Local Foods
is now a Certified B Corp! SOURCE has joined the ranks of many
excellent organizations here in Colorado (44 companies), throughout the
United States (752 companies), and indeed worldwide (352 companies in
34 countries), who are all working to create our sustainable future.
You might say that the growing B Corp community is at the heart of Team
Future!
Through the
work we're doing at SOURCE, my team and I have connected with so many
wonderful, impactful food companies and stakeholders. We have an impressive
local/sustainable food ecosystem here in Colorado, made up of many
organizations who are also part of Team Future, and who could consider
taking the B Lab Assessment and working toward B Certification. We
encourage you to take a look and to connect with B Lab - with offices
recently opened in Denver!
On behalf of
the SOURCE team, thank you to everybody on Team Future working to build
sustainable food systems together, and to the B Lab crew for developing
such a thorough assessment program and robust B Corporation community.
May the SOURCE
Be with YOU,
Aaron
CEO &
Chief Fungi

As we are
peaking in the Colorado produce season, there is so much to be
adorned. Peaches are coming to us steadily from Black Bear Orchards
and Kokopelli Produce,
both located in Palisade, CO. Melons are sunkissed, delicious and
fresh in from the fields including Full Circle Farms
organic honeydew and seedless watermelon. The first harvest of
Bartlett pears are here and apples are soon to follow!
Peppers are vibrant ranging from Milberger Farms
sweet yellow mini peppers to Ollin Farms mixed
purple, red and green bells. Eggplant, okra, green and grilling
onions, leeks, and sweet corn continue to funnel in from Pueblo,
CO. Beets galore! We have red, gold and chiogga varieties; packed
tops-on in bunches or loose in bulk bags. Squash is bountiful, in
traditional yellow and green zucchini. With fall approaching,
pumpkins and other winter squash will soon be here.
Our salad offerings will not disappoint. An array of organic
greens are available from Arkansas Valley Organic
Growers and Full Circle Farms
including baby and full bunch kale and chard. Baby lettuce mix and
arugula can be tossed with field cucumbers, radishes, cabbage, Hazel Dell mushrooms
and Ollin Farms heirloom
cherry tomatoes.
 
From our produce partner Veritable Vegetable,
we continue to provide access to specialty organic produce items that
do not grow here in Colorado. Check out these beautiful mangoes
below!
Be sure to
keep your eye on our weekly product list updates which reflect live
produce updates as more crops are harvested.
