No one can dispute that supermarkets are convenient, but they do not always off the best option when it comes to fresh produce. Often supermarkets import fruit or vegetables, and even cheese, from other countries. This increases the carbon footprint of those products. In order to become more energy (and carbon) efficient it is better to source local produce wherever possible.

• The food is delicious.
• Locally-grown food obviously does not cause as much pollution due to less travel time.
• Keeping family farms alive keeps rural landscape alive, supporting less sprawl.
• Spending your money where you live keeps your community thriving.
• As a tourist looking for local flavor makes your visit more authentic. Folks don't travel to Italy looking for a good burrito. If you come to our town taste what we grow.
• And if all of this is not reason enough, think of the health and safety of you and your family. Small, local farms are less likely to use hormones and more likely to raise grass fed or free-range animals, and organically-grown vegetables.
• If you know your farmer you know where to ask questions; the shorter the route from the farm to your table (at home or in a restaurant), the more knowledge you have at hand and the more flavor you have on your plate.
