You can't get more local than your own backyard. Plant your own organic garden, and enjoy cheap, healthy, flavorful produce that's grown in a sustainable manner. The key is using natural fertilizers and pest strategies - instead of chemical fertilizers and pesticides - to nurture your vegetables, fruits and herbs. That way, you improve the soil instead of depleting it and let Mother Earth's eco-system function as it should. Nothing beats tasting the fruits of your labor, especially when they're free of toxins and picked at the perfect moment of ripeness. Start an organic garden, and give new meaning to a "green thumb" today!
