Buy Local!
ByOne thing that has come out of the Covid crisis for myself is a renewed focus on buying local.
Facing empty shelves made me realise how fragile out food security is and how much we rely on goods from overseas.
So my focus is not only buy Australian, but take that one step further and by locally made and produced, where possible. It might be a little less convenient than picking something up when I’m at the supermarket. It might mean spending a little more. But for me, peace of mind and quality mean so much more.
This post I am going to highlight local fruit and vegetable suppliers who deliver and also meat.
Of course, many of these things can be purchased at your local farmer’s and grower’s market. They are all over our region on different days. But if you can’t make it, this is the next best thing.
