HOW TO SHOP MORE LOCALLY & HOLISTICALLY
Ask where produce was grown. A locally owned store may sell food from many regions, while a farm stand may offer food grown directly on-site.
Choose seasonal foods. Ask growers what is currently being harvested in Ohio.
Support independent grocers. Small businesses help strengthen the local economy and preserve access to diverse foods.
Explore cultural food traditions. International markets offer ingredients for nourishing meals from many communities.
Compare prices. Beans, rice, seasonal vegetables, and bulk ingredients can be affordable staples.
Ask about growing practices. Organic, conventional, and regenerative methods differ. Ask growers directly rather than assuming every local product uses the same practices.
Bring reusable bags and containers when permitted.
