Eating locally produced food will help people who don't have good transportation can't get the food they need quickly. Having local grown food is also better for the people living around the stores that sell the food. It also benefits those who can't travel very far.

I agree with you Clayton that living near stores benefits you. The closer you are, the less you need to travel. This means you can walk or bike ride there and not drive, helping your carbon footprint.  Also, having locally grown food helps the environment in a positive way because carbon has no role in it. This allows the plants around it, and the people, to live healthier.
