The Eat Local Challenge is a summer tradition at Tidal Creek! It’s a fun way to get actively involved in doing more to support our local economy. Challenge yourself to increase your local shopping this summer for 4 weeks. It might be easier than you think! The goal of the Challenge is just to eat more local than you do now. How you do it is up to you! Set a goal that’s attainable, but try to get outside of your comfort zone a little too. We’ve put together some helpful resources for you including:
- Reasons to Eat Local to keep you focused on why we do the challenge! Why Eat Local
- Tips for taking the Eat Local Challenge & Helpful Resources for finding local. Tips & Resources
- Seasonal Produce Calendar, so you know what’s growing locally. Produce Calendar
- Local Menu Ideas to get you started cooking and eating local. Menu Ideas
- Make sure you’re signed up for the Eat Local Challenge e-news for recipes, local updates and more.
