It’s about: • Building communities that are healthier and more sustainable, supported by local economies that are stronger and more resilient; • Keeping money local and communities vibrant; ‘Shop Local’ Wednesday in Boston’s South End. PHOTO: JUSTINE BORST • Using local and regional resources to meet our needs, not being dependent on resources shipped from halfway across the globe; • Reconnecting eaters with farmers, investors with entrepreneurs, and business owners with the communities and natural places on which they depend; • Creating more high-quality local jobs—for our neighbors, our families, and ourselves; and • Recognizing that we can’t just “do it alone” and that, in the end, we’re all better off when we’re all better off. We need to invest in communities that celebrate a more comprehensive vision of happiness and prosperity, where all people have the resources and opportunities they need to engage their minds, nourish their bodies, nurture their families, support their neighbors, and protect their environment.
