Local food; it just makes sense!

This 26 minute film was great fun. It was a university class project that I volunteered my time for my friend Josee. Then I got really into it.

Did you know an average meal travels 1700 miles to get to you? Undoing the absurd. That is what is discussed here. Why do people not buy food from farmers markets or local produce stands, whatever. Why not support local farming?

When we run out of oil and there is a global economic collapse local farming is going to be in! Very in, as like the only choice to stay alive. Start thinking about it! Enjoy this short film.

Video is here: Windows Media or Quicktime

Cheers
