💰🌏Why High-Quality and Sustainable Food is Worth the Investment

At Triple E Farms, we know that our customers care about where their food comes from and want the healthiest food possible.

We also understand that our products may cost more than industrial, commodity food. 

We want to explain why that is and answer any questions or concerns you may have. Our goal is to be transparent about our farming practices and show you why high-quality, sustainable food is worth the investment!

First let’s talk about what we are NOT: Commodity Producers.

A commodity producer is someone who grows or raises things in a uniform way to sell in large amounts to big companies. Commodity producers have a close relationship with Big Ag and Big Food. They often have to follow certain rules to get paid a certain price, but these rules don't always lead to the best quality products. This can lead to a "race to the bottom" in terms of quality because everyone is trying to make the cheapest product possible. 

At Triple E Farms, we believe in making high-quality products that meet our customers' expectations. We're committed to making sure our products taste great and are healthy for you too!

We need to move beyond industrial farming.

When we rely on industrial farming and the commodity production of food, it often hurts small local farmers. It is difficult for them to compete because they don't have the same resources and access to subsidies that Big Ag companies do. Commodity farmers, for example, receive generous subsidies from the government that small farmers do not. This creates a false sense of security for commodity farmers who become dependent on these subsidies to make a living.

The problem with this is that these subsidies drive down the cost of food, making it seem unrealistically cheap. Meanwhile, food from small local farms may seem expensive by comparison. As a result, small farmers can struggle to stay in business while commodity farmers continue to receive support from the government.

This is a big problem because if small farmers are squeezed out of business, it will not only affect the cost of food but also the impoverishment of rural America. It will also create a lack of resilience in the food supply chain, which means that if there is a disruption in the system (such as a natural disaster), it will be harder to recover because there will be fewer small farmers to help fill the gaps.

At Triple E Farm we are all about creating a STRONG LOCAL FOOD SYSTEM!

We do things a little differently than some other farms. Rather than selling our products to a middleman who then distributes them to stores, we sell our products directly to people like you! 

This means that we can make sure our food is high-quality and fresh when you get it. And, because we are not relying on industrialized, centralized, and commoditized food production methods, we have greater control over pricing, which allows us to make sure that both our customers and our business can thrive sustainably.

In other words, we're creating a more resilient and sustainable food system that benefits everyone!

We will never artificially lower our prices by cutting corners that can harm the environment, animal welfare, or human health. 

We will always be transparent about all of our practices, including pricing, because our number one goal is to be your trusted farmer!

If you have any questions or concerns about our prices or practices, please let us know. We're always happy to help!
