So you've been doing your best to eat locally—but sometimes you wish it was easier. What would help you the most? What resources do you wish there were?
Will you take a minute to answer these questions and get back to us? If you do, you will help make real change in the food system. The government of British Columbia has asked the 100-Mile Diet Society to make recommendations toward making local food as accessible as possible. They want to lead the charge in North America and establish "best practices" for others to follow.
Question 1
What specific resources would make eating locally easier for you where you live? What information do you wish you had at your fingertips? What would make shopping for local foods easier?
Question 2
Also, what is working for you? What are the best maps, websites, seasonal food directories, institutional buying programs, and "demand-side" (or consumer) campaigns you have seen?
Just hit 'reply' to send us your thoughts, and we'll put them to work! The world can change for the better!
–Thanks so much,James and Alisa
