The idea of eating food grown nearby certainly caught fire in recent years.
But there are some continued issues with getting people who live here--wherever "here" is--to buy food grown here.
One of the issues is where to buy the food.
It often takes a special trip to a farmer's market or similar store to obtain locally-grown food.
Getting the food into "regular" grocery and even convenience stores could make a big difference.
It's an effort embraced by THRIVE, The Rogue Initiative For a Vibrant Economy.
