13.01.2022 LOCAL LOVES Not too long ago we introduced Feed For Thought to our Yarra community. We asked their lovely founder, Alison, what inspired her to create her brand and here's what she shared with us. ... "I was inspired to create Feed For Thought by the majesty of Antarctica. I’d been working there for six summers and in that time witnessed the change brought about by the way I live my life at home. Every time I returned home from the Antarctic, I’d go for a walk with my dog, Max, and think about what I could do for this planet and the places I’d fallen in love with.That’s when I decided to use a sustainable source of protein to create food for Max. The idea behind Feed For Thought is to just provide Canberrans with an option. The problem of the changing climate is multi-faceted and requires systemic change. This can feel overwhelming, particularly coupled with a global pandemic and of course the day to day challenges we all face just trying to get to work on time, putting food on the table and really, doing no harm. I just wanted to create an easy choice that Canberrans could feel good about, knowing they are feeding their dog an all natural treat without chemical nasties wrapped in compostable packaging that results in a low carbon pawprint." If you think its time for your furry friend and Feed for Thought's sustainable dog treats to be acquainted, you can find them at Yarra IGA. #yarraiga #howthelocalslikeit #supoortlocalbusiness
