Localvore it Up Starting this Week
The Green City Market is challenging you to eat only locally grown foods for two weeks starting this Wednesday. The Localvore Challenge means that your food has to be grown in Illinois or a bordering state, although you can establish an exceptions list of basic ingredients (olive oil, salt, pepper, vinegar, coffee, etc.). Also, if you're itching to go out to eat, a bevy of restaurants such as Lula Cafe, 312 Chicago, Le Lan and Uncommon Ground will have a menu item each night that is Localvore Challenge-friendly.

WTF James? Why did you just copy and paste the text of the post in your comment? Is this some newfangled spam?

Oohh I like this challenge! I wish I lived closer to green city market. My problem is I just don't know where to buy all local produce near me!
