Eating Locally - Another Benefit
My wife and I made a conscientious decision a couple of months ago to up our intake of locally grown, organic food and cut back on the grocery store stuff. I now make the weekly trek to the local Boyce Farmers’ Market and pick up a variety of locally grown food, including a dozen of the killer samosas!
Even the kids prefer the locally grown food – gotta like that!
But guess what else we noticed? Our curbside waste has gone down – go figure! For as much as we do to go green I was amazed that there is even a correlation between buying local and store bought products – packaging.
Try it yourself – see if you notice a difference. Your local economy will thank you.
