My Local

Basically, I try to keep things as local and regional as possible. This isn't all or nothing and it isn't about being perfect. I do the best I can within my budget.

What do I consider local? Essentially, I use a 100-mile radius as a starting guideline.

Why local? First and foremost, it's fresher and you can taste the difference. Second, I like to know where my food comes from and by sourcing my food locally I can get to know the farmer and how my food was grown or raised. Thirdly, it keeps my money local too and supports people directly where I live.

I try to spread my local food love around, but these are a few of my favorite spots:
