Took my son grocery shopping last night and was please to see that both stores were hip to the whole Eat Local thing. I found some confusion with the produce department peeps, but got that worked out. It was interesting to investigate if the fruit we were buying was actually local, or just packed by a local business. Turns out Newcastle Produce grows the stuff themselves. Really tasty stuff too. As far as coffee goes, got some from Carolines. Guess that's as local as we can get here. Everything we purchased was local. Mostly fruit, so we will be fruititarians for a while. Milk and tofu rounded out our purchases. I now want to start a fork in the Eat Local, America! program. Its called "Drink Local, Nevada City!" Wanna join me?
