About Us
We started Love Local Food Co. to put small-scale sustainable farming and food production back at the heart of the food system we all depend on. Buying food from our local growers and communities encourages a healthy, seasonal diet, a wider variety of food on your table, and supports our loving Comox Vally community.
Holly and Cleo met 4 years ago and have been friends ever since. Both share a passion for creating sustainable projects in their community and helping support local businesses. Together they saw a need to connect their community to a local food supply. They have formed relationships with amazing vendors in the Comox Valley and are excited to connect customers to an easier way to access great local food. Their passion to help people and support local businesses gave them the inspiration to create Love Local Food Co.
