Preserves from NG's traceable produce
Fruit & vegetable preserves workshop
Produce that is a little odd-looking but still delicious goes to the preserves workshop instead of being wasted – a zero-waste loop.

NG AI Platform grades produce with AI cameras. Fruit that doesn't meet looks standards goes to a preserves co-op run by local women.
Each jar carries a QR code showing the farm, harvest date and the person who made it.
