My favorite buy was Braswell’s Select tea. It comes in a reusable drinking glass. The Statesboro company says only 20% of drink containers are recycled, so the unique packaging encourages people to reuse the glasses. Honestly, I don’t need any more drinking glasses, but I love the idea and the Pomegranate Blackberry tea was delicious.

As I close on week one of the Locavore Challenge, I’ve eaten about 75% local; not quite my 90% goal. It’s been fun to hunt down local food. It’s made me try things I wouldn’t have otherwise. And I know I’m eating healthier.
