10 % Campaign Challenge
All across North Carolina, businesses and individuals are pulling together for a cause and challenge...spend 10% of your normal food bill on local foods and products. This is a SMALL amount to help support our local farmers and the hard working people that truly help feed this state and keep North Carolina a leader in a local food frenzy market. Local food is SO readily available everywhere from roadside stands to your local grocery store and its because of the hard working farmers that work day in a day out to help feed us. If your average food bill is $100 a week, all you have to spend is $10 a week at a local farmers market, local grocery store, you will find out buying these products, taste better, they are healthier for you and again you are supporting your neighbors, friends, and families that depend on their farm land to make a living. Lets keep North Carolina crazy about local, accept the challenge and make a difference in the way you eat and knowing where your food comes from.
