Nationwide, a movement called the 100-Mile Meal is educating the public about the benefits of locavorism. The movement promotes eating food that originates within 100 miles of where you live. Athens, Ohio is pushing that idea a bit further and has started the 30-Mile Meal. The link below has a nice little article about it. I feel lucky to live close enough to Athens to take part in its rich locavore traditions!

July is 30-Mile-Meal month. If you have the chance to visit the Athens area, this website will provide more information and a map of participating food producers.
