Slowing Climate Change
One Recipe at a Time
Climate change is a real issue. It isn't something that people can just dismiss. Climate change exists and it is a problem. Every step towards reducing our impact on the planet helps. The small things really do add up. Sourcing food locally and supporting grass-fed, rotationally grazed meat are just two simple things that you can do to help the fight against climate change.
Here you will find information on what food is local to the state of Wisconsin, recipes for meals using that locally sourced food, and information on how local agriculture and climate change are connected.
The best way to support local food is to grow your own. If you grow your own food, it eliminates the need to transport the food. All kinds of produce can be grown in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Potatoes are an easy one, they can be grown in bulk without a ridiculous amount of land. Potatoes actually contain all of the nutrients you need to survive! They make a great base or addition to any meal.
