How to Shop for Local and Sustainable Groceries Online

December 11, 2020

I talked about my family’s food philosophy for this piece in The Thirty:

My food philosophy for my family of four is to incorporate high-quality, seasonal, and fresh produce into our diets as often and as much as possible. Since I do cook most days of the week, we really try to eat everything we buy.

Overall, we are a plant-forward family, as one of us is a vegetarian. We’ll also have fresh seafood twice a week since I do love it. For seafood that’s farm raised, I’ll always look for the ASC certification so that I know that fishery is engaged in responsible aquaculture. In the same vein, if it’s wild seafood, I’ll look for MSC certifications.
