Harris Farm Markets Sustainability Actions

B Corp certification achieved

Harris Farm Markets is a Certified B Corporation, which means it has been assessed against standards for social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. B Lab gave it an overall score of 86.1, which is above the 80-point level needed to qualify. This shows the business has already met a recognised external test for sustainability-related management, not just made its own claims.

Uses imperfect produce

The company has promoted an Imperfect Picks approach, which highlights fruit and vegetables that are still edible even if they look a bit unusual. This helps reduce food waste by giving more produce a chance to be sold instead of thrown away. The idea is simple: food does not need to look perfect to be useful.

Compostable apple bags

Harris Farm has published a blog post about going green with compostable apple bags. Compostable means the material is designed to break down under the right conditions, unlike normal plastic that can stay in the environment for a long time. The available material does not give full details on how widely these bags are used, but it shows the business has worked on packaging changes.

Seasonal and local sourcing

The brand says it focuses on seasonal produce and works closely with local farmers. Seasonal food is produce sold when it is naturally ready to harvest, which can reduce the need for long storage or transport. Local sourcing can also support nearby growers and shorten supply chains, meaning the path from farm to store is simpler.
