Buy locally, eat delicious(ly)

Choice stats: the number of Oregon farms increased by more than 50% over the last 30 years, compared to a 30-40% decline in breadbasket state farm numbers over the same time frame. And according to one study, the average dinner travels 1,500 miles from farm to plate. Good stuff, and it features our farm!
