Check out things local

Often we are too busy to check out what is happening in our own neighborhood.  We have many local resources on sustainability – and I thought I would share what is happening at Cornell Cooperative Extension this weekend. Details may be found on Cornell Cooperative Extension of Monroe County’s website.

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Monroe County invites you to join in the 2nd annual celebration of Localvore. Grow, buy and eat locally grown fruits, vegetables and meats.

Localvores are people committed to eating and learning about foods grown close to home. Localvores define local food as food grown, harvested, and processed within a 100 miles of their home.lettuce
