REFLECTION QUESTION
Industry

How can you express your personality, creativity, and values in ways that don't require fast fashion or buying more clothes and accessories?
Zoe Reece 10/09/2023 12:39 PM
Buying clothes second-hand is a great way to do that! Additionally, learning to sew can be a creative way to either make clothes yourself or repair/modify existing garments.

Dependable fresh food, supporting local farmers and building resilient communities are just a few benefits of local food systems. Which of these (or other) advantages inspire you the most?
Zoe Reece 10/09/2023 12:31 PM
I think supporting local farmers is the benefit I am most interested in or driven by. Among the other benefits, supporting local farmers means that they will continue to produce their crops which is usually much better for the environment than massive farms.
