Local foods When we eat fresh local foods, we are choosing foods that are grown and harvested close to where we live. The food is distributed over shorter distances and thus, we save on fuel for transportation. The quality of the food tends to be better and the food tastes better. In addition, the food has not undergone any kind of processing (packing, addition of chemical substances such as additives).

Eating local is not only tastier, but also healthier for our body, our country and the planet. Moreover, eating locally helps to financially support local producers and the local economy
