So I bought into this community garden so I could try my hand at growing some of my own food and relieve a bit of my dependence on supermarkets (not that I have been frequenting them that much lately). It's definitely helped me be more attentive and focused on alternative ways to get food. Plus its brought me into more contact with stories about local food in LA. I've read and posted about some previously here. Today brought me a Wired story about eating locally and how to take it up a step from just shopping at your local farmers market to actually finding out where it comes from and how you can take it even a step more local with farm co-ops and helpful websites. Its a pretty good introduction for some easy steps to take. I haven't taken them yet, but if you want to, here's where to find them.
