Week of Action events in the Upper Valley

Upper Valley Localvores have scheduled a week-long January Localvore Challenge Jan 20-26. The focus is on eating foods grown within a 100-mile radius of home. Our belief is that there are many environmental, economic and social benefits to greater regional food sovereignty, not the least of which is the decentralization of power over our food supply.

The Upper Valley Co-op in WRJ is having a week-long focus on reducing packaging waste Jan 20-26.

On January 24th, at King Arthur Flour in Norwich, VT, 6:00 PM, Vermont Earth Institute is having a Localvore Potluck and showing of "The Story of Stuff" and discussion of ways to reduce the stuff in our lives.
