Green Tip For The Week

Buy Local and Seasonal - Do you really need to eat mangoes in winter?  Resist the supermarket "all-year-round" mentality and get back in tune with local, seasonal produce.  This time of year is a great time to eat US grown apples, pears and oranges. You'll reduce the amount of air-freight emissions and support local farmers.  (Reprinted from: 1,001 Ways to Save the Earth, By Joanna Yarrow)
