Locavore Wisdom

Locavore Wisdom | Green News | Gambit New Orleans News and Entertainment: "At Hollygrove Market & Farm's first Saturday market in June, hundreds of shoppers flowed in, changing the pace of the usual steady traffic with a nearly overwhelming crowd.

  It was the first market day for 'locavore' shoppers participating in the inaugural Eat Local Challenge, which asks participants to eat foods sourced from no more than a 200-mile radius of New Orleans. More than 200 people are participating in the challenge, which lasts through June. Registration included a discount on Hollygrove's weekly boxes, filled with locally grown produce and other local goods."
