Robert's Co-op distributes ONLY locally grown food. People
in his area ARE growing it.
In our area, you'd have a heck of a time not starving. This
is not a farming area (too mountainous, really, except for
dairy farms - which are dying off rapidly).
But Robert's Co-op sells only locally produced food: that's
*the whole point* of it.
