Summary: This show focuses on the steps to become a Locavore. Locavores try to only buy food grown within a small radius of where they live, usually 50 to 150 miles. I improved the audio in this weeks episode but I still have some learning to do. This weeks lesson was about reducing background noise. (we need chairs that dont make noise as we move around.) The word locavore was chosen as the 2007 Word of the Year by the New Oxfords American Dictionary. [source: Oxford Dictionary ].
