I buy local when I can, and even frequent small, private farm stands in the area for tomatoes (that actually taste like tomatoes), zuchini and lettuces. I get my eggs (fresh) from a local farm here in Ocoee. They're amazing -- I didn't realize just how stale store-bought eggs can get.

I refuse to buy anything from Mexico, instead I grow my own avocados, and have found alternate sources for fruit and berries.

Unless I'm totally misguided, I'd rather give Florida's economy a boost when I can.

We don’t ALL live in Fla or California which is another reason why this is stupid. As the author notes, you may opt for locally grwon stuff if it tastes better but I grew up in Wisconsin and do not think surviving in the winter on cabbage and potatoes and carrots beats buying delicious cherries and berries from Chile.

I can’t get mine to grow here in NC.
