When my kids were younger and I was working, the biggest challenge was coming home and trying to figure out what to make for dinner…again! This mindset produces fast food fixes and less than nutritional dishes on the table. Then we bought a freezer full of meat from the local butcher and dinner was so much easier…if you have the protein in hand, the rest falls into place.
On this website all summer, we’ve been talking about enjoying the fresh and local food found in your own backyard and eating seasonally. Now that fall is upon us, that’s not as easy…but we can always get the best cuts of meat from locally produced butchers and suppliers. This is where truLOCAL comes in to make that decision easier.
Providing you with options on how and what to stock your fridge and freezer, truLOCAL sources your proteins from local and sustainable suppliers. Whether its seafood from Afishionado Fishmongers in Bedford, Nova Scotia or Ontario lamb from Beverly Creek Farms in Millgrove, you can count on truLOCAL to deliver a specialized box to your door when you need it.
Knowing where your food is coming from and tasting the difference in the finished dish will bring confidence you are feeding your family the best protein available.
