When you "live local,"
by supporting local businesses and farms, deepening your community connections, increasing your energy independence, and making other sustainable choices, you help make Greater Milwaukee a more self-reliant region. This self-reliance will enable our region to weather economic, climate, and energy uncertainty in the future.
Live Local Milwaukee
is a grassroots initiative focusing on several themes:
Eat Local
Grow Local
Buy Local
Local Energy
Local Transport
Local Culture
This initiative is currently under development. Please visit our Resources page for some ideas about how you can "relocalize" your life. For more information, to partner with us, or to receive updates on this initiative, please contact relocalize(at)milwpc.com.
Please join us for the Fall Festival & Sustainable Living Conference September 27th & 28th, 2008 at the Urban Ecology Center
