== Context == For whatever reason, be it to [[Save the Environment]] or [[Buy Local]], you want to eat locally grown food. == Process == * Use a [[Seasonal Menu]] so that you usually cook with local ingredients that are [[in season]]. * It's ''very'' easy to do this if you get a weekly local organic [[grocery food box]] and [[recipes]] from the extremely cute [http://www.hgof.ns.ca/ Geordi]. * Buy your food at a [[Farmers Market]] in your area. Even there, [[check the labels]] or ask to find out where the food [[Where Did It Come From|came from]], because lots of the stalls in the Farmer's Market [[redistribute]] stuff "[[from away]]" and the [[shipping]] is a far greater fraction of the price you pay, than what the [[Farmers|farmer]] got. * [[Grow Your Own]] food. Even in the [[city]], you can do this on any scale, from a sunny [[back yard]] full of [[Grow Potatoes|potato]] and [[Grow Tomatoes|tomato]] plants, to a [[windowbox]] full of [[Grow Herbs|herbs]]. Parsley, rosemary, thyme, oregano, mint, and chives are good first choices. After doing it for a while you should examine the [[DIY Efficiency]]. * Look at the labelling. All food is marked with where it comes from -- sort of. Raw ingredient labelling is accurate, but for example, a frozen dinner can say ''Made In Canada' but all the ingredients could come from China.
