Focus on the things you can do to create a better life in Barrie. Shopping local is one easy way to do this! When we spend our money at independent retailers, more of that money makes its way back in our community. Sounds like a win to us! #ShopLocally#SupportLocal#ShopLocal#ShopSmall#ShopLocalMovement

We hope you enjoyed our Local Food Series this summer, because we really enjoyed sharing all of the reasons we love local! Tell us, did we inspire you to visit a farm, visit the market, or become a Locavore? We hope you continue to support local food in Barrie as much as you can! #LocalFood#LocalFarms#Locavore#ShopLocally#SupportLocal#LoveLocal#ShopSmall

If your food is grown and made closer to you, it means less greenhouse gas emissions from transport, and a lower carbon footprint! Try to do your part for the environment by buying food closer to home, maybe even try a 100-mile diet! We just love Locavores! #LocalFood#LocalFarms#Locavore#ShopLocally#SupportLocal#LoveLocal#ShopSmall
Do you like variety? Smaller local farms and vendors at the farmers market can grow interesting fruits and vegetables, and create specialty products not found in big chain grocery stores! Does anyone even know what to do with enoki mushrooms? Whatever interesting local thing you find, try it! #LocalFood#LocalFarms#Locavore#ShopLocally#SupportLocal#LoveLocal#ShopSmall
