Why Go Local?

It may seem easier to go a big out of town supermarket, but how much easier to visit the 'supermarket on your doorstep, namely your local shops where you will find fresh local produce on sale, in more pleasant surroundings.

You will save time and money on fuel bills, while taking the time to shop in the relaxed, friendly atmosphere only small shops can provide.

You will also benefit from the shopkeepers professional expertise.

   


To Cut Food Miles

When you buy local produce, less fuel is needed to get it to you, not only saving on greenhouse gas emissions and traffic congestion, but also making it fresher when you buy it.


To Help The local Economy

When you decide to buy local produce you will help to keep,the money you spend in local pockets. This helps support and promote a healthy local economy which will in turn help to boost employment in the area.


For peace of mind

There are so many health scares surrounding cheap imported food that, as a consumer, it's good to know the food you are buying is produced under proper conditions.
By asking for local produce you can have confidence that this is so as it's source is easily traced - just ask the shopkeeper.


How Local Is Local?
