1. Locavores are people who have decided to eat locally grown or produced products as much as possible. With an eye
to nutrition as well as sustainability (resource use that preserves the environment), the locavore movement has
become widespread over the past decade.
Imagine that a community is considering organizing a locavore movement. Carefully read the following seven
sources, including the introductory information for each source. Then synthesize information from at least three of
the sources and incorporate it into a coherent, well-developed essay that identifies the key issues associated with the
locavore movement and examines their implications for the community.
Make sure that your argument is central; use the sources to illustrate and support your reasoning. Avoid merely
summarizing the sources. Indicate clearly which sources you are drawing from, whether through direct quotation,
paraphrase, or summary. You may cite the sources as Source A, Source B, etc., or by using the descriptions in
parentheses.
