Local food is the answer. By buying foods in season, foods raised by producers within 100 miles of one’s home, Americans are creating demand that allows family farms to be profitable.

We should not be dependent upon foreigners for our food. If we destroy the agribusiness industry, we destroy the ability of foreigners to control our food supply, and we obtain for ourselves the health and security that comes from eating what we grow for ourselves.

Food security is food safety! Help make America self-sufficient in food! Buy local!

"Local food is the answer."

Not only is that safer but tomatoes actually taste like tomatoes and plums taste like plums.
