"CHALLENGE: How LOCAL are you?" by IntheNOLA.com
The "Eat Local Challenge" is happening in New Orleans for the month of June in which New Orleanians are encouraged to eat as much local food as possible, meaning anything that is "grown, caught, or raised within a 200-mile radius of New Orleans." Since this can be quite difficult, people are encouraged to go to shop at farmer's markets and other local vendors in order to get the freshest food possible rather than packaged and processed foods which have tons of chemicals and are therefore unhealthy. In addition, several local restaurants are offering all-local meals on their menus to help those who are doing the challenge.
