REFLECTION QUESTION
Food

Dependable fresh food, supporting local farmers and building resilient communities are just a few benefits of local food systems. Which of these (or other) advantages inspire you the most?

I love the fact that when you go into a locally owned small shop, you get the chance to interact with the people that make it all possible. The time and the care that go into sourcing fresh foods and keeping a business up and running is what inspires me the most.

I either take the bus or I carpool everywhere I go. Definitely to the grocery store and to work. It's a great chance to interact with other people too!
