Market Hauls and Meaning I

love: A phrase we've heard so much these days that it almost loses all meaning, according to The Chronicle Herald. I think it's very reassuring when people talk about supporting local, and indicate their local love in hashtags on their farmer's market hauls, but I think there is more to it than that. Eat local. We pursue the knowledge and cultural illumination which comes with eating a simple bowl of chowder or a platter of smoked meats. Our journey, and our love of what local inherently means to us. In our modern world, social media is where we come together as a community to share our discovery. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
