food miles

Regarding Sustainabundy, this makes great sense.

I get really upset when I see produce in the supermarkets which has come from interstate, when plenty is available locally. And the quality of local produce is usually higher.

We are a local grower of hydroponic produce and we know of produce being grown in Bundy, shipped to Brisbane, then shipped back to Bundy to the supermarkets. Crazy!

Food miles is now starting to become more of an issue.

If people buy locally, I think this is better for everybody, and the environment.
