Learn more about how you can support the local movement – including farmers and businesses – during Local Foods, a panel discussion planned this Saturday, April 30 at Old Worthington Library, 820 High St.
At 2 pm, representatives from Local Matters, Sustainable Worthington, Up the Lane Farm and others will talk about ways to eat and live with a more seasonal mentality and discuss the difference between "local" and "organic."
