The Urban Acres co-op connects city dwellers with farm fresh produce and regionally made products. A key philosophy behind the business is 'knowing where our food comes from' and supporting local growers. In this way, it becomes obvious that Urban Acres places importance on slow food, food that is grown nearby rather than flown-in from the other side of the world.
