While Bermuda does not have a legal standard or certifying body for organic produce, the local farmers we work with stand by firm principles and stake their reputations on their professional integrity. They do not use chemical pesticides, herbicides, GMO, artificial additives or plant growth hormones. They keep their promises.

At Village Pantry, we serve only grass-fed beef and certified humane chicken which are hormone and antibiotic free. Whenever available we use locally-grown vegetables and local fish in proud support of the Bermuda farming & fishing community. These relationships are built on trust and a mutual commitment to sustainable, natural products and practices.

Village Pantry is committed to supporting ecological, community and humanitarian initiatives both locally and around the world.
