Eat Local

Tieing nicely into the Local Food theme, Life Begins at 30 is having an Eat Local Challenge, to start in May. Eat only food produced within a hundred miles of your home, if at all possible.

The Local Food posts include delis, which put paid to the hundred mile challenge. The point is to buy from independent, local shops, where the money goes back into the local community rather than draining away into the fat pockets of supermarket bosses. Local butchers, however, are more likely to have sourced their wares locally, making that part of the hundred mile challenge so much easier.
