Local Food Sources

LOCAL FOOD SOURCES

There are lots of good reasons to buy your food locally. First of all, it's nice to know where your food comes from, who grew it and where and what went into it! Buying your food locally supports area farmers and helps maintain the rural character of our area. And, when the food you eat doesn't have to travel thousands of miles to your table, you're helping make our country more energy efficient. That's good for the environment and good for national security. Why wouldn't you eat local?!

RE: Local Food Sources

I truly enjoyed reading this article.  Last June my husband and I moved to the D.C. area, and now and then we visit Culpeper.  I had no idea there are so many farms selling great produce.  On our next visit I will bring my shopping list and my cooler!
