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?

Growing Food At Home
Growing fruit and vegetables is a great way to not only get healthy food, but to also help reduce your carbon footprint. For example, one of my friends has a garden where they grow tomatoes and grapes. They don't need to go to the store, and get all the packaging that the store would give them. Instead, they are growing it at home, which reduces their carbon footprint. I would like to have a garden in my home that way we won't need to go out to buy the food. That affects not only our food carbon footprint, but also transportation to get the food, and spending money.
I agree, gardens are a great way to reduce your carbon footprint!
I dont think this would work because not everyone has the room in there complex to do this. Thanks Tho!
