At Wheatsfield we recognize the importance of good food in our lives. We know the more you know about where your food comes from and how it is grown, the better it tastes and the more you feel connected to the food system, the environment and the local community.

We hope these resource pages (links to the left) include helpful information for you, your friends and your family on various aspects of our food system. Is there something we are missing here? Let us know and we'll consider including that information here to spread the great news about good food!
