Buying locally means that you know what you eat/get; whether it has been treated with pesticides or even gene manipulated. You actually see what you get. Besides the money will stay in our community and not disappear abroad. You will get fresh product which are not cooled and stored for months and then shipped all over the planet. This will help your budget and also the environment immensely.Helgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14181778516600408010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3073485462688354610.post-83725447528098725592014-06-18T20:49:00.590-07:002014-06-18T20:49:00.590-07:00I have a coffee pasta dough recipe i'm dying t...I have a coffee pasta dough recipe i'm dying to make.

Comes a time when you must purchase and then locally if not paying a big premium because it keeps people in jobs although as we all know the farmer gets shaken down and gets very little from the retailer compared to the risks each party takes. Farmers markets are terrific when you are dealing with the GENUINE PRODUCER but so often we are just buying from a disguised retail arm of a greengrocers shop, what a con that is!<br />BriThePiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00572124171759094324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3073485462688354610.post-38053185470089327172014-06-17T17:55:04.044-07:002014-06-17T17:55:04.044-07:00Wow what a hamper!
