WELCOME!

Throughout the United States more and more people are buying locally grown food in order to ensure the known origin of the food they are consuming.
  • What are the reasons for this trend?
  • How does the integrity of a community improve through better relationships with local produce growers and meat producers?
  • How may an organization of producers and consumers working together help provide safe, quality food to the public?
  • What are the benefits to the local economy when consumers buy from local producers?
