Yes. It is good for the local economy. And it tastes better.

Yes. I believe in supporting our local farmers markets for several reasons. One it is a healthier option, it supports the local economy and it is good for the environment

Yes. I always buy locally grown produce. If I can I try to go to local farmer's markets a couple of times a week.

Yes. Because it helps your neighborhood. The produce is fresher and has more nutients because it is grown closer to home and has travelled less to get to you.
