Local food map – Essex County, Ontario

About a week and a half ago, The Windsor Star published an article about the demand for the much anticipated local food map.

There has been a lot of press about the 100-mile diet and it seems that even in Windsor, Ontario, there is a strong demand from residents of the area to find local foods.

The 100-mile diet is supposed to reduce the environmental impact of our food – but I wonder how driving all around Essex county in the search of local produce will be good for the environment.

The map will be available May 1, but the link below will show a preview of the map.
