| Dear Dennis,
Summer’s around the corner, which means it’s time to fire up the grill and enjoy your favorite flame-cooked foods. At A Greener World, we believe that grilling season can be an opportunity to not only savor delicious meals but also make greener food choices that align with your values.
A recent article titled “5 Ways to Ensure You Get Humanely Raised Meat for Grilling Season” from Organic Authority featured Certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW as a top choice label to look for when shopping for humanely raised meat, and we couldn’t agree more. If you want to source high-welfare, sustainable products from farms raising animals to the highest standards, let us help you find it!
Here’s some insight before you get grilling:
Learn about certifications by A Greener World, like Certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW, that guarantees animals are raised outdoors on pasture or range for their entire lives on an independent farm using truly sustainable, high-welfare farming practices.
Seek Out Labels from A Greener World: Whether you’re shopping at the grocery store, farmers’ markets, signing up for a community-supported agriculture (CSA) program, or dining out, it’s possible to purchase Certified Animal Welfare Approved by AGW products. Use our online directory to find options near you.
Educate Yourself and learn about food labels to make informed choices. Familiarize yourself with terms like “grassfed,” “cage-free,” and “free-range” to decipher what resonates with your values.
Ensuring that the foods you enjoy this summer come from animals raised with the highest standards will make your meals even more memorable. Let’s make this grilling season one that celebrates both delicious flavors and sustainable products that nourish us.
Wishing you a summer season of grilling delicious, memorable meals! |
