"Eat Local!" Video


There are so many reasons to eat local foods -- ecologically, you're saving on transportation emissions and packagings (not to mention the cost of both); economically, you're helping those in your own back yard, especially small and family farms; and of course, you're getting the freshest, most vitamin packed foods.

Here's the link to a video contest our state put on, the challenge to eat local for a day. We did it! And it was delicious. And we'll be doing it most of the time now, too.
