Why Buy Local
Buying local is good for your neighbours, it’s good for your community, and it’s good for our Island. Here are just a few of the many benefits derived from buying locally produced products:
- Reduce the food miles our food travels. Buy PEI beef, lamb, or pork, rather than New Zealand, US, etc.
- Eat fresh, whole foods for your health. Less travel means less nutritional loss.
- Supporting Island businesses helps the PEI economy grow.
- Reduce the carbon waste of food transportation.
Best of all, while most stores offer only a small selection of PEI products, the bestofpei Market and bestofpei Store let you see all that PEI has to offer in one spot (ok, two spots)!
