Investing in Community + Health thru Local Food w— Fresh Harvest

“When I think about local food, it’s an investment in our bodies in the long term. Everyone should have access to that.”

Eat local! But why?? In this episode, we feature an Atlanta-based company that is changing the way farmers do business and helping get local food into the hands of more people. This conversation offers food for thought around creating alignment in your work, running a mission-driven, profitable business and investing in your community (+ your health) through food.

Paula Seville is the Marketing Manager for Fresh Harvest, which is a residential delivery service that works with local Georgia farms to bring fresh, organic produce, dairy, meats, breads, and groceries right to people's doors. Prior to joining Fresh Harvest, she owned and operated a catering company focused on sourcing locally. Fresh Harvest has a unique model that helps farmers grow their businesses, reduces waste + provides jobs for local refugees..
