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?

Home grown food
should not even be a question, everybody should grow as much as they possibly can at home.
Agreed. What can schools, towns or municipalities do to try to encourage this?
Offering free compost amendments for soil? Seed exchanges? Free classes in gardening at community centers?
I fully agree! Even if you don't have a garden, it's still possible to grow food at home. There are many vegetables or herbs that can be grown in a pot, so even if you live in the city center and don't have much space, you can still grow something in your balcony. It's not as difficult as it seems, so why not?
