Cross the Bridge to a Healthier Lifestyle.
We believe in supporting our community and partner with many local vendors. Anytime you visit Sunny Bridge you are sure to find our shelves stocked with foods sourced from within 300 miles of the store—including meats, raw milk and honey.
We are very proactive in supporting our farms and businesses. Our relationships with these farmers and producers are at the very heart of Sunny Bridge.
There are SO many reasons to choose to buy local…
Local food is fresher and tastes better than food shipped long distances from other states or countries. Local farmers can offer produce varieties bred for taste and freshness rather than for shipping and long shelf life. Additionally, since local food doesn’t have to travel very far it is also great for the environment. Short distances mean reduced carbon dioxide emissions and packing materials.
By supporting local business you are contributing to the community by keeping the money you spend in our area. You are also supporting small, family-owned farms and businesses and enabling them to thrive. Knowing where your food comes from and how it is grown or raised enables you to choose safe food from farmers who avoid or reduce their use of chemicals, pesticides, hormones, antibiotics or genetically modified seed in their operations.
A farmer for many years and beekeeper since 1975, Ron Swopes decided to leave farming to pursue a business career. Recently retired and wanting to be close to his family, he and his wife relocated to Washington County and purchased a small farm. The buzz was in the air!
His new family farm business, Swope’s Berries & Bees, not only includes bees but also black raspberries and blueberries. Ron and his family manage several apiaries and harvest, extract and bottle their own honey. Fresh and local!
