This Week’s Project: Find A Local Farmer’s Market

By Chris Baskind in The Daily Footstep

Eating locally produced food is the new organic. Apart from the obvious financial benefit to your community, local food has a lower eco footprint than the trucked or flown-in stuff you’ll find in most groceries. Find a farmer’s market close to you and plan a trip for this week. If you live in the U.S., you might find a market on this search page. Otherwise, check you local phone directory or ask at your favorite whole foods store.

    Excellent. I'd be pleased to see directories for other countries and regions here, if anyone knows of them.
