While visiting the Wild Berry Market in Minoqua WI today, I noticed a large amount of produce marked locally grown/sustainable.  Curious about the source,  I questioned Megan Rudisill, an owner, where the product came from.  She responded Antigo, 70 miles away.  I said that didn’t qualify as local or sustainable because the product was of no economic benefit to the community.
