Their beans and tomatoes come from Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and some from Ontario. Not as good as the farmers' market, but better than California for mid-winter tomatoes! The origins of a few other "supermarket" brands can be found at http://foodorigins.wikispaces.com/ . Hey, folks- those of you in the Midwest might want to look for Eden Organic products.

I'm very aware of the importance of bringing the food miles closer to home, but the more I learn, the more I realize how much more work there is to do. But once the interest is there, it just becomes a personal challenge for me to find the next thing locally. Then the next. Newcomers should know that it can't be done overnight, and that every dollar they switch out from the big box grocery store to the small, local grower or producer, the better spent that dollar... Oh, what a poorly constructed sentence! Anyway...thanks so much for commenting. Off to check out your blog! El, thanks for noticing the legwork!

I recommend finishing the pizza with some coarse salt and cracked pepper, after brushing it with garlic infused olive oil. Just amazing. Merseydotes, it is sooooo yum.

Ok. Back to the garden I go! Kathy, I got my hands on some summertime lettuce, so will plant that in the hopes that it will handle the heat and humidity of July and August in Ohio. Ok.

For the most part, I just go with what's on hand, but you were determined! Thanks, then, for listing the nitty gritty: people doing the challenge need to hear that there may be a bit of (sometimes fruitless) legwork involved. Your hard work certainly looks like it paid off, though...yum. Kelly, I like the fact that you listed the process of this meal.

We've got a pile of zucchini and yellow crooknecks from our CSA, and this sounds SO good. I’ve never done pizza on the grill but I hear it’s great.
