Because I've been obtaining all of our food this summer in a piecemeal fasion - CSA, Farmers Markets, Herdshare and occassional grocery shopping - I haven't done an enormous, 10-bag food shop that requires a vehicle to lug the groceries home.
My husband and I also just bought bicycles last month - something we should have done a LONG time ago. We absolutely love our bikes and have been taking them everywhere and using them daily! We can't wait till our son is old enough to use a bike seat so that we can go on family outings.
Anyway, last night's herdshare pick up was light. Just some red potatoes, spelt flour and quinoa. The house where I pick up the food is only a few miles from our house, so instead of hopping in the car I decided to ride my bike to pick up the food. Talk about local and sustainable! I used zero carbon emissions to pick up the food, and it was all grown within 100 miles of home.
I love this diet :)
