Buy
Fresh Buy Local connects consumers to Hampton Roads' freshest and
most delicious locally grown and produced food. Through outreach
materials, advertisements and point of purchase materials, we make it
easy for consumers to find and buy fresh, local food.
Take the $10 a week Challenge! This
season, pledge to spend at least $10 a week on locally produced
vegetables, fruits, meats, cheese, seafood or any other local product.
Sign up and take the pledge at the Virginia Food Systems Council
website: www.virginiafood.org Spending just $10 a week on locally
produced foods can generate over one billion dollars annually that
stays in our state. That's amazing!
The 2012 Local Food Guide is out! This
year the food guide has been expanded to 6 pages and includes more
partners, a travel guide, information on food terms, an event calendar,
and tips for shopping at farmers markets. Find a copy at our partner
locations throughout Hampton Roads, or view a digital copy on our website. You can also visit our Google Map
for an interactive version of our guide. Access it from your smart
phone and you can download the map as an app to your home screen.
