Where our food comes from & how our food is grown affect:
~ our health, 
~ our regional economy, 
~ the health of our environment, &
~ the strength of our communities

Local food is about the future.  
By supporting local farmers who observe sustainable farming practices, you help ensure there will be farms in our community tomorrow -- and that future generations will have access to nourishing, flavorful, and abundant food.
