Foodland Ontario is a government initiative that encourages Canadians to buy fresh and locally sourced food items. The program doesn't only ensure that one's groceries are healthy and nutritious but also supports local farmers and businesses.
The company's website connects users with locally sourced food items in their neighbourhood and educates one about fruits and vegetables that are in season. The web platform also features a myriad of fresh and organic recipe ideas and is a source for local food events and farmer's market pop-ups across Ontario.
Foodland Ontario's website is a useful resource for those living in the province and meets consumers' increasing need for organic and local food items. As we grow more informed about consumption, initiatives like this one further enforce the importance of honest and wholesome food.
