Uncas Farms carries a wide selection of locally grown and processed foods and handmade crafts.  We encourage our customers to buy local whenever they can.

Benefits of Buying Local:

Less fossil fuel use and road congestion from moving food around (surveys show that a basic meal made from imported ingredients can easily account for four times the greenhouse gas emissions of an equivalent meal made with ingredients from local sources.)

Preservation of local farmland and local farmers. (Farmers that have a local market are less likely to go extinct.)

Superior flavor (Double-blind studies show that people consistently choose farmers' market  produce over stale, long-distance fare -- one of the reasons this movement has attracted the attention of chefs, food critics, and discriminating eaters around the globe.)
