I became vegan about two years ago. Becoming vegan involved much more than choosing to cut out dairy, meat, eggs, and other animal products, it mean't learning about the different food options available to me. By supporting local farmers we are eating foods with more flavor and more nutrients. Eating local food helps to benefit the local economy as well as the environment. Organic foods are typically more fresh, contain less pesticides, are better for the environment, richer in nutrients as is GMO-free. 

You might be sitting here reading this questioning how you would be able to afford such high-class food. If UT were to support more local and organic farmers, the cost would lower and in turn would become more affordable to people like you and me.
