Our Values
At Honeyplate, we believe that the foundation of a truly nourishing meal begins with the ingredients themselves. We take immense pride in carefully sourcing each and every component of our meals, ensuring that they not only taste exceptional but also align with our commitment to sustainability, ethical practices, and your well-being.
Meats
Committed to Quality and Ethical Sourcing
At Honeyplate, we believe in serving meat that not only tastes exceptional but also reflects our values. That’s why we source our beef and pork from farms that prioritize animal welfare and sustainable practices. Our partners raise their animals on pasture, where they can graze freely and enjoy a natural diet, free from unnecessary antibiotics or hormones.
Poultry and Turkey Held to a Higher Standard
We’re particularly proud of the standards we uphold for our poultry and turkey. We source from farms that are committed to:
No Antibiotics Ever
This ensures our poultry and turkey are raised with a focus on their health and well-being, without the use of any antibiotics
Cage-Free Living
We believe in providing our birds with ample space to roam and express their natural behaviors in a cage-free environment.
Vegetarian-Fed
Our poultry and turkey enjoy a 100% vegetarian diet, free from any animal by-products.
Hormone and Steroid-Free
We insist on poultry and turkey that are raised without the use of added hormones or steroids
Seafood
Ocean-Friendly Choices
We prioritize wild-caught seafood with a “green” rating, ensuring that our choices support healthy fish populations and marine ecosystems.
Sustainable Aquaculture:
Our Faroe Islands salmon comes from carefully managed cold-water aquaculture operations that minimize environmental impact and prioritize fish welfare.
Produce
Informed Choices
We adhere to the “Dirty Dozen / Clean 15” guidelines when selecting produce. This helps us prioritize organic options for items like leafy greens, which are more prone to pesticide residues.
Balancing Priorities
While we prioritize organic for certain produce, we also recognize the importance of accessibility and affordability. For items like avocados with thick skins that naturally protect them from pesticides, we opt for non-organic options.
Our Promise
By thoughtfully sourcing our ingredients, we create meals that are not only delicious and satisfying but also support a healthier planet and a more sustainable food system. We believe that food should be a source of nourishment, joy, and connection, and we’re committed to upholding this philosophy in every meal we prepare.
