With a goal of training consumers to eat both seasonally and locally, the owners of a new Lititz-area food box company say they will put a portion of their profits toward preserving Lancaster County farms.
More specifically, Diana Smedley and Gabriel Luber, co-founders of Lancaster Local Provisions, say they will share their earnings with Lancaster Farmland Trust, a nonprofit geared toward farmland preservation.
âOur mission couldnât be more aligned with Lancaster Farmland Trust,â Luber said, stressing the importance of local food systems. âIt all begins with farmland and farmers.â
The couple said their interest in local, seasonal foods long predates the grand opening of Lancaster Local Provisions earlier this month.
