The Problem The majority of store-bought rhubarb is grown and shipped from the West Coast, thousands of miles away, where conventional farming methods and extensive transit take a toll on both their flavor and nutrients. The rhubarb is grown in sad soil that relies on harmful chemical fertilizers. By the time it make it to your grocery store, you don't know for how long it's been stored, what farm it's coming from, and how many hands it's been passed through on their way to you. Our Food Fix Our rhubarb is locally-sourced and nourished in nutrient-rich soil that result in a flavor and juiciness that you'd never expect. We at Local Roots are rejecting the status quo of bland, dried out rhubarb and bringing you deliciously tart rhubarb that will quickly become the hidden star of any dish.
