Buying local means buying food and goods that are grown and raised as close to your home as possible. A tremendous amount of fossil fuel is used to transport foods over long distances. Combustion of these fuels releases carbon dioxide and other pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to global climate change. In addition, buying local also means you are buying fresher food from sources you know and trust, helping contribute to the local economy.

Here is a list of a few places in Southern New Brunswick where you can purchase locally grown or "home-made" products:
