The lovely blogger who posts at "The Public, the Private and Everything in Between" has a post describing her attempts to eat locally this summer. I enjoyed her cogent insights about several aspects of eating locally.
An excerpt:
It felt good, finally, to do something I’d been meaning to do for such a long time, and know for at least one day out of my wasteful grownup life I helped the environment (buying local obviously means signicantly less gas was wasted delivering your food, plus the produce isn’t packaged or dumped into plastic bags) while at the same time buying healthy, beautiful food for S. and me.
