In the case of food, local grown is better in many ways.
For one, things like "Fresh Apples" are typically harvested and warehoused for up to 6 to 9 months. They are then almost completely lacking in the nutrients they had when harvested.
Shipping food in from literally 10's of thousands of miles takes time and they have to be harvest early to not ripen before they hit the stores.
If is can be grown locally, it should be.
