A Localvore is a person dedicated to eating food grown and produced locally. Many localvore organizations (known as Pods) have sprung up in communities across Vermont. Localvore pods are inspiring their communities to choose local foods, and supporting their local farmers, bakers, brewers, distillers, and maltsters: creating demand for the delicious food grown in Vermont.
