YOU'LL STRENGTHEN YOUR LOCAL ECONOMYBuying local food keeps your dollars circulating in your community. Getting to know the farmers who grow your food builds relationships based on understanding and trust, the foundation of strong communities.YOU'LL SUPPORT ENDANGERED FAMILY FARMSThere's never been a more critical time to support your farming neighbors. With each local food purchase, you ensure that more of your money spent on food goes to the farmer.YOU'LL SAFEGUARD YOUR FAMILY'S HEALTHKnowing where your food comes from and how it is grown or raised enables you to choose safe food from farmers who avoid or reduce their use of chemicals, pesticides, hormones, antibiotics, or genetically modified seed in their operations. Buy food from local farmers you trust.YOU'LL PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENTLocal food doesn't have to travel far. This reduces carbon monoxide emissions and packing materials. Buying local food also helps to make farming more profitable and selling farmland for development less attractive.TASTE THE DIFFERENCE IN FRESH, LOCAL FOOD AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF!Premium Taste. Locally grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested. Produce picked and eaten at the height of ripeness has exceptional flavor and, when handled properly, is packed with nutrients. Maximum Freshness. By choosing local produce at farm stands, farmers markets, pick-your-own farms and grocery stores, you pay for taste, not transportation and packaging. Unique Varieties. Local farmers often grow a large assortment of unique varieties of products to provide the most flavorful choices throughout the season...FAMILY FARMS ARE A SOUTHERN TRADITION IN DANGER OF FADING AWAYFamily farms are an important part of our Southern tradition of self-sufficiency, forming the bedrock for communities across the South. Farmers in 2002 earned their lowest real net cash income since 1940. Meanwhile corporate agribusiness profits have nearly doubled (increased 98%) since 1990. Large corporations increasingly dominate Southern food production. Four large firms control over 80% of beef slaughter and 50% of broiler chicken production.FAMILY FARMERS ARE THE HEART OF THE SOUTH'S RURAL COMMUNITIESLocal family farmers spend their money with local merchants. The money stays in town where it benefits everyone and builds a stronger local economy. Independent, family-owned farms supply more local jobs and contribute to the local economy at higher rates than do large, corporate-owned farms. Eating locally grown, healthy food strengthens your family and community. Local farmers who sell direct to consumers receive a larger share of the profit for their food.To find out more please visit our website at:
