Since the average grocery store's produce travels over 1,500
miles from farm to store, a movement to eat locally is growing.
In Houston, more and more co-op and CSA (community
supported agriculture) groups are starting - each promoting
local and/or organic produce.
Local foods lessen the amount of petroleum used from
transportation, paper and plastic from processing, as well as air
and water pollution from industrial processing plants.
So support your immediate economy, reduce pollution and eat
healthier by buying local foods!
