Did you know buying locally grown food reduces our impact on the environment? Farmer’s markets are a great way to support independent businesses, as well as reducing the carbon usually released by long distance transportation. I found this site (slowfoodportland.com) that serves as a good primer on the foodie aspect of the movement. Please share any other organic finds that are out there.
