Eating local has grown significantly in the last few years as many locavores want a greater connection to food producers within their own communities. A recent Gallup survey even found that nearly three-fourths of Americans try to seek out locally sourced food, and there are several advantages to doing so: it supports local businesses, often its package free at your local farmer’s market, and less-traveled food means lower emissions.
While it’s easier than ever to buy local, nothing beats the convenience of delivered food, and one New York-based company is combining locally sourced food, delivery and reusable packaging for a tasty and sustainable combination.
The Wally Shop sells and delivers locally sourced, fair trade, and organic products in reusable packaging. Customers place their order with no markups (although they do charge a service and delivery fee) and Wally Shop buys and delivers using a bicycle messenger same day. The kinds of packaging include mesh bags, glass jars and totes, all of which get returned on future deliveries. Wally Shop then cleans and preps them for reuse.
