WHY Buy Local?
On average, the
typical consumer's food
travels 1,500 miles or more from farm to table
(New Perspectives on Food Security,
Conference Proceedings 2004) Buying local
foods reduces emissions associated with
transportation and packaging
Exceptional
freshness and taste
Buying local food
and products keeps your dollar circulating in
the community. You help support local,
endangered family farms by making them more
profitable and, in turn, making development less attractive
Knowing where your
food comes from enables you to choose food
raised without antibiotics, hormones, and
undesirable chemicals from farmers you know and trust
