How we measure our Impact
We believe that we’re accountable to you - our customers, our team members, our farmers, and everyone who helps our small business make a positive change. So, we measure and share our progress towards fulfilling our mission every year.
4 Mighty Years
Goal 1: Support Farms to create More Organic Wheat
Our bagels, tortillas, bread and pretzels wouldn’t be as delicious as they are if we didn’t start with the best organic wheat. We contract direct with organic farmers who commit to our supply standards, which include extended crop rotations to naturally replace nutrients in the soil, prevent erosion and promote biodiversity to improve crop health, and annual visits from our team, and we commit to paying a premium over commodity organic wheat prices and opportunities to increase supply to us in the future.
Goal 2: Build More Mills in More Communities
We fulfill our mission by placing our mills close to the communities we feed, we position them next to a local bakery partner, and then source as much local wheat we can. In year four, we have proven we can replicate this model throughout the U.S., with our decision to build a local milling infrastructure in California to support the local market.
Goal 3: Feed Mighty Communities
Last year, we entered into a partnership with the Springfield school system to supply our fresh-milled bagels at a subsidized cost to feed their 30,000+ students each week. We’re happy to report that in year four, we supplied over 600,000 fresh-milled local bagels to students at Springfield and Lynn MA schools.
Goal 4: Build A Company The Right Way
This year four new employee owners, maintaining our commitment that 100% of employees have an opportunity to become owners in our company. To make an impact on the world around us, we need a committed, engaged team that believes One Mighty Mill will offer them a unique opportunity to grow and become owners in a mission-driven business.
