1. Trey Pounders: Three Benefits of
Farm-to-Table Dining
Trey Pounders of Ponte Vedra, Florida, knows that that farm-to-table is
one of the most important ways that the food industry can embrace the
slow food movement, paying close attention to the farmers and in-season
foods around us to make good changes in our communities, such as the
following:
Farm-to-table dining is an excellent way to boost the local economy, as
you’re supporting local farmers and businesses, therefore keeping
money in your own community. Working with small farms also typically
means healthier, more nutritious food, as they tend to care more for the
soil in ways that monoculture farms do not, which rely more on
pesticides.
Farm-to-table dining is an excellent opportunity to bring organic and/or
local food to your community. Many people don’t even realize that they

2. have farms in their town that grow incredible produce or raise antibiotic-
free animals, and a farm-to-table restaurant can help increase exposure.
Because food in farm-to-table dining doesn’t have very far to travel,
meaning that there are far fewer emissions and energy necessary to ship
the food to its customers.
Trey Pounders, a leader at Green Box Foods, is dedicated to connecting
people to fresh, healthy options in a variety of ways.
