Hey, Erin–I am glad to hear that you liked Heather’s essay–I thought it would be a great thing for my readers to take a look at.

We eat mostly local foods here all the time–all of our meat is local, most of our dairy products, and our vegetables and fruits. Some of our grain products are, except for rice, of course. Rice doesn’t exactly grow in Ohio.

Jim–glad you liked it.

What a fascinating essay. I’ve never really understood religious dietary restrictions (being a lapsed Catholic), so this was quite an eye-opener.

Thank you for the link!

Thank you for directing me to Heather’s blog. It was really informative!
I am currently blogging about a localvore challange here in Chicago. We are attempting to eat ONLY local foods for a week. I am realizing every day the ways that this is important for me and the local farmers.
