Over the summer, Local Food Hub and 4P Foods finalized a merger of their distribution operations. Local Food Hub is a nonprofit organization that was founded to partner with Virginia farmers to increase community access to local food. 4P Foods is a direct to consumer food hub that connects consumers in the DC metro area with good food from small family farms. This merger marries Local Food Hub’s strengths in farmer relationships and product knowledge with 4P’s strengths in logistics, market development, and sales.

A hearty yet delightfully summer filled savory pie of roasted summer heirloom tomatoes, paired with a super creamy parmesan and garlic filling. Perfect for any meal of the day! Recipe adapted slightly from Bon Appetit and Paleo Running Mama.

Local sourcing encompasses all kinds of agriculture, and flower farming is our new favorite industry to support.

If you’re searching for ways to charm your moms, grads, and even dads during this season of celebrations, Why not add an extra special local touch with flowers or plants from a local farm?
