Our Philosophy
At Pinnacle Foods we believe in playing a big role in practicing regenerative agriculture farming practices paying attention to the practices of agroecology, compost, no-till and pasture cropping practices in particular when producing our seedlings.
Underlining these practices is an approach to managing land that adopts arrangements observed in flourishing natural ecosystems. These are also principles that are enshrined in permaculture, originally comes from "permanent agriculture" but later adjusted to mean "permanent culture" alluding to the role of indigenous knowledge and traditions in natural farming (no till, no fertilizer, no pesticides or herbicides, no weeding and no pruning), in which the practice is rooted. It further includes integrated water resources management systems that develops sustainable architecture, regenerative and self-maintained habitat and agricultural systems modelled from natural ecosystems.
Our goal is also to regenerate the soils in and around the southern region of Botswana through organic and natural farming methods. We want to encourage and teach both the young and old alike, the value of local farming and the benefits to the local community. A healthy soil, microbial and ecosystem are the building blocks to developing the green corridor the region needs to stabilize its climate conditions that brings rains and sun in good measures. This reinforces a healthy soil and the microbial activities underneath the soil surface for a productive growing medium your crops need. We then buy back the nutritious crops you produce to be used in our food processing plants. We believe growing a vibrant local agriculture industry is key to building the backbone of the economy.
Appreciating and supporting our local farmers is the best way to feed a growing population. Paying for local food can be more expensive but you get a much better nutritious product. The nutrition that is important in warding off COVID19 and related variants from our midst and therefore restoring a greater sense of security a thriving economy needs. Local produce has more flavor, nutritional value and keeps money within our community. Local food is more nutritional thus making people more healthy. Less money spent on medical bills and doctor visits. Not only supporting local farmers but growing family gardens is a great way to feed families. Gardens can cut down on grocery bills and working in the garden has shown to extend life expectancy and happiness.
We believe in the value of a re-built food system that can naturally support the world's population through healthy environments, healthy economies, healthy communities and healthy bodies. Every day that we are in business, we are working to provide an essential component in the re-building of our healthy food system.
