No wonder theyre trying so hard . . .
Local restaurants take advantage of
local resources to make their food
But theres more to local food
than just food
Its estimated that we could add
millions of dollars to our local
economies every year if we switched
just 10% of our chain food purchases
to locally owned restaurants.
Not to mention shrinking our carbon
footprint by saving thousands of pounds
of
that is required to package and
transport food from factory suppliers to
chain locations.

Every time you order food
you are making an impact
It takes a
community
to change a
community
Lets keep our food
from farms
not from factories
It takes a
community
and make a difference
in ourselves

and our world
