Fresh Option Organic Delivery
Marnie and Kevin Feeleus are two former chefs who found that raising children and working restaurant hours were not compatible.
Because they still loved to feed people, they created a business dedicated to providing high quality food with an environmental and ethical pedigree.
Fresh Option Organic Delivery is an alternative localized food system for Manitobans. F.O.O.D. delivers ethical groceries right to the consumer’s front door.
In promoting and selling organic, vegetarian, vegan, local and/or fair trade products, they are dedicated to providing consumers in Winnipeg with a new alternative for accessing food. They are driven by a philosophy of sustainable environmental practices, community stewardship and socially conscious action.
F.O.O.D. uses “as many fair trade products as [they] can get [their] hands on”. Among their wide variety of fair trade items are chocolate, teas and coffees, and select produce whenever it is available.
They also work locally trying to implement fair trade criteria for local farmers, ensuring that consumers have the option to support local producers as well as international.
