Are you a locavore?

What is a locavore you ask, well it is the 2007 New Oxford American Dictionary of the year.

A locavore is someone who either buys all their food from farmers' markets and other fresh locally owned growers or grow and pick their own food.
Locavores also do not buy food from supermarkets because of the amount of fuel used to transport the food to the stores.
The guidelines for being a locavore are: buy foods that are locally produced, if not locally produced, then buy organic. If not organic, then buy from family farms or local businesses. If the food you want is not available, buy Terrior, "taste of the earth". Terrior foods are foods that are famous for the region they are grown in.
The term "locavore" was brought about two years ago by a group of women in San Fransisco. The women who coined the term, Lia McKinney, Jessica Prentice, Dede Sampson and Sage Van Wing, defined a 100-mile area around where they live, calling it a "foodshed", and began to encourage others to eat within their "foodshed" too.
The movement argues that locally-grown organic food is better tasting and more nutritious. The past year has seen the trend of eating seasonal foods without preservatives rise a lot.
