Eating Local is Getting Easier
As the mantra to “Eat local” has become lodged in our collective conscience, farmers’ markets have grown in both numbers and popularity. In Anne Arundel, Calvert and Prince George’s counties alone, the number of weekly markets has climbed to 19. Add in Baltimore and D.C. markets, along with neighboring counties, and the number rises to well over 50.
