Dear BESTers,
Join me for a delicious sampling of local, fresh and in-season 
food dishes! Local Eats Meet and Greet is a community dinner event 
emphasizing the importance of eating local foods to create a 
sustainable community. The event will also serve as a fundraiser 
for the Civic Media Center, a local non-profit organization 
dedicated to non-corporate press and community improvement.

Come out and try food grown by local farmers and distributed by 
local businesses that recognize the importance of a local food 
community in this increasingly industrialized food system. 
Resources on sustainable eating will be provided.

Dr. Rosalie Koenig will highlight the importance of local eating 
to the creation of sustainable communities.

In the U.S., the average grocery store's produce travels nearly 
2,000 miles between the farm where it was grown and your 
refrigerator. Come out and become a part of the LOCAL FOOD 
MOVEMENT!
