AT LET-US NATURLY CRAFTED SALADS, we’re more than just a salad company—we’re a movement.
We recognize the uphill battle small farmers face in today’s economy, especially those striving to build generational businesses. That’s why we’ve committed to sourcing our ingredients from local farms across the region.
Our goal is simple: deliver delicious, healthy food while creating real economic opportunities for the farmers who grow it. Every salad you buy helps plant seeds of sustainability, equity, and community wellness.

A Fresh Mission Rooted in Community.

Why Local? Why not local!

Why We Choose Local Farmers

1. Strengthening Local Economies...
Supporting local farmers keeps money circulating within the community. It creates jobs, sustains small businesses, and helps build resilient local economies rooted in self-sufficiency and collaboration.

2. Fresher, Healthier Food...
Local produce travels shorter distances, meaning it reaches customers at peak freshness. This results in better flavor, higher nutritional value, and fewer preservatives or chemicals.

3. Environmental Stewardship...
Local farming typically requires less transportation and packaging, reducing carbon emissions and waste. Many small-scale farmers also use more sustainable and regenerative agricultural practices.

4. Cultural and Community Connection...
Local farmers are stewards of regional food traditions. Choosing them reinforces community identity and creates opportunities for storytelling, education, and intergenerational knowledge transfer.

5. Equity and Opportunity...
Investing in local farmers—especially historically underrepresented Black and Brown growers—helps dismantle systemic barriers in agriculture. It opens the door to land access, entrepreneurship, and intergenerational wealth-building.

6. Transparency and Trust...
Knowing where food comes from and who grows it builds trust. It encourages accountability, ethical farming practices, and a deeper connection between consumers and producers.
