You're making some good choices, snowy! I should point out that I didn't want to take transportation out of the equation entirely; I merely wanted people to think about their intake in general. It looks like you have an excellent balance, especially how you go out of your way (ironic, isn't it?) to purchase products from local producers rather than the offerings at supermarkets. It should be noted that consuming locally produced meat is far better than the double whammy of consuming meat (costly to produce) that has come from afar (costly to transport).
Is the food you get generally organic?
