1 Comment

 
The importance of spending consumer dollars with local businesses will be powerfully demonstrated in a presentation and workshop this Tuesday evening.

"The Impact of (Not) Buying Local" will be presented by Susan Odum on February 26 at 7 pm in the Carbondale Civic Center. Susan Odum is the Community and Economic Development Program Coordinator with the University of Illinois Extension.

Odum's presentation will include an interactive game to help people see some of the unintended effects of their purchasing decisions. This program is part of the 11 Days for Food Justice; other events can be found at nonviolentcarbondale.org.
