You can support local farms by buying locally.

Why support local farms?

• You are supporting the local economy, and help keep local farms in business
• You help the environment because the amount of energy it takes for you to drive to a farm, farm stand, farmers market etc is far less then what it takes for that product to be packaged, and shipped from wherever in the world it is being produced. Thus, saving on waste and pollution.
• You know where your food is coming from.
• You get fresher product
•  The produce you buy is better for you. Produce looses nutritional value the more it ages.
• Opportunity to know the person producing the product being purchased, and to learn more about what goes into producing that product.
