One of the best things we can do to "slow our roll" and to take care of our environment is to eat locally. Visit a farmer's market; look for items at your grocery store that are locally produced, go to those smaller stores; you get the picture. Local helps us in a variety of different ways. It helps build better communities, because we're encouraging local businesses. We're keeping it local. It cuts down on gasoline usage and a variety of other resource waste. Local items often taste better, because we get them while they're freshest.
The list goes on and on. So, look into it. See what you can do to become a localvore. It's fun too.
