It is summer here in the Midwest, and our diet is rich in the ‘fruit” of the land. Farmers Markets are in full glory, fruit and vegetable stands abound and neighbors are more than willing to share the abundance of their gardens. Eating “locally grown food” is the reality that we delight in at this time of year. We don’t really need to be convinced of the value of these great foods – but there is MUCH to learn about the over-all benefits of this conscious choice to “eat locally”. Resources
