BE A LOCAL FOOD ADVOCATE
Changing the food system takes all of us working together.
Here are a few ways that YOU can be a local food hero.
LEAD BY EXAMPLE
Plan your menus around what is in season (seasonal guide on page 34), preserve and store
crops for winter, grow your own food.
SUPPORT THE BUSINESSES THAT SELL LOCAL FOODS
Select the local option at the grocery store, order menu items prepared with local ingredients
at restaurants, let businesses know you love their commitment to local food.
ASK THE QUESTION
Don’t see a local option of your favorite food at the store or in a restaurant? Ask them about it.
If you know that a business uses local products, encourage them to publicize that fact.
APPROACH INSTITUTIONS
Schools, hospitals, and elder care centers all produce large quantities of meals each day.
Future Roots facilitates food procurement agreements that emphasize local ingredients. If you
are connected with an institution, connect them with us. We can help prioritize local food in
their purchasing decisions.
INVEST IN LOCAL FOOD
From CSAs to our impact fund, put your money to work in support of local food producers in
our community.
