How much does eating locally-produced food help the climate problem? What are the other potential environmental and social benefits of eating locally-grown/produced food? Do you have a food garden in your school or at home? If not, do you want one?

Healthy Life in the Countryside
My family and I live in the countryside and have our own garden where we grow organic vegetables. We buy the rest of the food we need from local producers. We are not near any big city, so we have cleaner air, we don't hear cars but birds chirping. We also raise bees and produce honey. We have 200 beehives. In addition to the medicinal properties of honey, bees pollinate other plants, thus providing them with a good harvest. In this way, we do good for the environment, help nature instead of poisoning it, and feed ourselves and others around us with quality food grown in an ecological way.
