JetBlue and TERRA Reveal the T5 Farm -- An Innovative Experiment in Urban Farming and Airport Sustainability - Seite 3

"JetBlue is New York's Hometown Airline and what better way to showcase their New York pride than with a farm," said GrowNYC Partners Executive Director Marcel Van Ooyen. "Northeast farmers produce some of the freshest, healthiest, tastiest food in the world, which is already available inside T5, and now outside: at the farm! It's an opportunity for us to educate all the travelers about where food comes from in an exciting, non-traditional setting."

"Throughout aviation history, JFK Airport has been home to many firsts in environmental sustainability," said Michael Moran, General Manager of John F. Kennedy International Airport. "We applaud JetBlue's commitment to protecting the environment and for their green space initiative, marking another first for our airport."

Creating a healthier airport environment is a core pillar of JetBlue's sustainability philosophy. As New York's Hometown Airline™, JetBlue is proud of the natural foods and products available in its hometown and home state. The airline regularly utilizes opportunities such as the T5 Farm to educate customers on important issues such as carbon offsetting, composting and climate change, while matching their desire for more nutritious options onboard and in terminal. The airline is known for offering distinct, whole food and responsible onboard food options. Guided by the airline's mission of inspiring humanity, JetBlue is consistently seeking new ways to connect with diverse suppliers, including farmers that grow environmentally and socially responsible foods and exemplify similar responsible practices.
