Edible Chesapeake:
WHY EAT LOCAL?
*Fresh, local food tastes great!
*It's fun!
*It's also healthy, tasty and environmentally-friendly.
*It strengthens community.
*And it supports your local economy.
WHERE?
*Because we live in a Maryland suburb of Washington, DC, some of the information on our website is specific to our region of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. But, no matter where you live -- even in Virginia, Delaware, Pennsylvania or across the country -- we’re sure you’ll find something here that can help you access local food in your own area!
